I don't think so, unless Trace Mack, the kicker out of Florida, goes nuclear, which they had issues at the kicker position.
I would be really surprised if there's a first-team All-Pro out of this draft class.
This was a depth draft class for them, knowing that they got their superstar first-team All-Pro in Micah Parsons when they traded their first-round pick last August.
Maybe, you know, I'm going to switch my answer and say, yes, Michael Parsons coming off an ACL will be a first-team All-Pro.
He'll come back earlier and get that done.
That's you know, that's a good point.
So, no, I don't think any of these guys, whether it's Brandon Cisse, the cornerback or, you know, some of the pass rushers that they took.
I just this was a depth building draft for the Green Bay Packers, knowing they've got some star players coming off of injury that they hope they can develop some young guys early in the season and then get Micah Parsons and their start tight end Tucker Kraft back at a reasonable point of the season and make a late season push.
I mean, if you think back to last year, they used their first-round pick on Matthew Golden, the speedy wide receiver out of Texas, who had a pretty underwhelming rookie season, but came on late in the season and scored a great touchdown in the playoff loss to the Bears.
So I think they're hoping he takes a big step in his second season.
They needed some defensive depth, especially at cornerback.
I mean, when you're rolling out guys like Keyshawn Nixon and Carrington Valentine, who we like in Green Bay, but you put them on any other NFL roster,
and they're probably third and fourth DBs and special teams contributors, you've got a problem.
So I think they really needed some young lifeblood into their defense, especially into the secondary, because they attacked the defensive line like we talked about with Michael Parsons' last offseason.
Yeah, I don't think anybody's a thousand percent.
