Apparently the brass must have said enough already, way too many dropsies. Guys who can't catch footbalss aren't winning football games.
I got Watson done, Reed stays, the two new guys and then who. One or two have to he cut and that's okay they didn't pan out.. Poor picks by Gutt did this.

Obviously all Packers wideouts have been put on red alert. Get it done, or get gone.

this guy is a Freak-
Gute took 2 wrs early- as predicted.

LOL!

I have been pushing Savion several times now leading up to the draft hoping the Packers select him. My favorite player! Many of you (LOL) have down voted my comments about Savion.

This guy is a PLAYER and is going to have a huge impact on offense with everything they can do with him. Better than Deebo! Matt LeFleur is going to have so much fun lining him up in the backfield, slot, Y, Z, wild cat. Savion will be a fan favorite! Love it!

He returns punts and kicks. Hard to see Mecole Hardman making the team now.

I don't get taking a second WR this early. It's looking like Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson may BOTH be gone after this season.

We are loading up the offense for a shootout! Jacobs gets his #1 WR. Leatherhead gets his dream draft. Heats on MLF to score some points. We have a QB, OL, and we're lock and loaded with WRs and TEs. Could be an exciting season. I suspect we'll draft or pickup another OL. Now we need DL and CB restocked.

Savion Williams is a weapon. Big. Fast. Skilled. Former QB. Smart.

Have you ever seen that movie where Jackie Chan uses a step ladder as a weapon? Williams is the ladder. A smart coach will know how to use him.

I could not be happier at this point.

Hello Cordarrelle Patterson--that's the often-used comp, so that's the hope. Apparently he can pass, too.

A most intriguing addition, and if that talent can be harnessed and he can dispel the notion of his poor hands, he could be a special player.

I think there is a strong possibility Williams is more than a special-teamer and gadgetry specialist over "the next few years." For a third-round pick, the Packers have do be confident he can do more.

Slow internet...repeat!

He's got exciting upside, but he's also considered to be a bit of a project at this level.
Inconsistent hands and iffy route running, but it's really hard not to fall in love with the highlight reel.

For a run-first offense to have a big-bodied WR with Savion's multi-dimensional skill set is.. exciting.

Would have really, really liked to have seen a CB before day three, but I'm happy to see where these three young men's careers go in GB.

Here's your designated jet sweep guy...if he can get on the field.

I really like this pick. I thought they might go with Royals, but I like Williams more.
The Packers must be a little nervous about Doubs (concussions) and maybe Wicks drop issues—although I like Wicks.
A good draft imo. I wanted DLineman, but I like what we’ve done.
Go Packers!!!

Probably my biggest "crush" in this draft year! He also was the BPA.
I'm not worried about his hands AT ALL. He made tons of very difficult catches.
He's going to be the most exciting YAC guy on this team! With Kraft and Jacobs, we're going to be treated to some fantastic YAC this year!

The offense is now officially "loaded." I imagine we'll be seeing a lot of defensive picks tomorrow. Our defense has someone solid at every starting position, so all we're looking at is rotational guys, backups, and developmental guys. That lets Gutey pick the BPAs, which is great!

I am getting the feeling Gutey knows he is going to be a real GM when Ed is allowing him to make all the Football team operation "Policy"...aka Wolf and Thompson.

So he is clearly loading up on the Offense to see if LaFleur can "urgently" coach the rookies and Vets to exceed expectations.

Could be a year of "no excuses".

Hafley will, with continued success to make the D into dominant bunch, again be in demand for a HC gig. Might the gig be at 1265 if the O again fizzles in the North and the Playoffs?

I now want to see the Pack swivel to drafting the 'big bad uglies' on the other side of the line. Guys who can handle OL's like Philly. Have to be able to stop the run!

I think the clear message here is that BG saw enough of the WR he had in the room last year....

I like this pick a lot; the floor is Cordell Patterson, the ceiling is Deebo Samuel. Going into the draft, we had good receivers but not dynamic athletes. Now, with Golden and Williams, we have guys that can hit a crease and go to the house. Doubs, Wicks, and Reed are excellent possession receivers, but don't scare anyone like these two might. Gute is right in looking to upgrade the athleticism of the offense because we were far behind Detroit in dynamic playmakers. Now maybe we've caught up.

Developmental wideout who offers an alluring blend of physical gifts and untapped potential. Williams is big, strong and fast but very raw as a route-runner and is unreliable with his hands.

A WR with unreliable hands? If we can't fix the drops the current WRs have, how will this guy get better? While we all are supposed to blindly hype the picks, this could also be another Ty Montgomery or Amary Rogers too. And it comes at the expense of not helping out the DL/DE/CB issues. 'Raw' and 'untapped' -- hints of 'potential over production' - Gute's draft Achilles heel - rearing it's head again?

This guy would be - what - 8th WR in the room? And we'll likely keep 6? As a 3rd rounder, he is kept on the roster...which means one of our experienced guys gets cut. I don't see that as the same roster improvement as drafting someone on the DL/DE/CB would bring.

If some are right...that Ja is gone...our CB room would be woefully thin. Imagine an injury to one of our CBs...(please refer to 2016 playoff loss to Atlanta Falcons 44-21 and what we had for DBs if you don't want to 'imagine')

My take: there were better BPA options that actually addressed an area of need.

Watson will start the season on IR so no worries til he returns. Then Melton or Hardman might get the ax depending on who the backup returners are. If I was Melton I'd find myself a punter and be catching 25 punts a day.

I just watched a video of all his touches in 2024. He's really impressive--big and strong and fast and elusive. He breaks tackles. He's not your usual gadget player. Hard to say if he can be a full-time WR in the NFL right out of the gate. The drops are discouraging.

I would've preferred a more "regular" WR with such a high pick. I'm not confident that Matt LaFleur will get the most out of this guy. I remember the Josiah Deguara experiment, which went nowhere fast, although maybe just because Deguara wasn't very good. Deguara was an H-back and not like Williams at all. The comparison is that LaFleur was going to use him to make the offense more varied, and it never really got off the ground.

I also remember LaFleur using Tyler Ervin as a gadget player, which was a nice little wrinkle, but it never became a big part of the offense. Williams has way more potential than Ervin ever did. I just worry that Williams is going to be Matt LaFleur's cool new toy that he gets for Christmas and stops playing with after a few days.

It will be tons of fun if this works out though. The offense got stagnant at times last year, especially toward the end of the season. With Matthew Golden and Savion Williams on the team, there will be less chance of that happening. The new offensive lineman should add a jolt of energy as well.

Every year, we go into the draft thinking, "How are they going to fix the defense?" I thought that narrative was overstated this year, because the defense was actually very good in 2024. But I didn't see them taking offensive players with the first three picks. This is a real statement from the GM.

So we get the WR with perhaps the best hands in the draft in round 1 and follow that up by getting the WR with perhaps the worst hands in the draft in round 3. I mean, if he ever learns to catch the ball consistently and run routes, he'll be an absolute stud, but the 3rd round seems a bit rich for a guy who is that much of a project.

Williams is more than just a gadget guy...he's a shape shifter too.

This article lists him at 6"3", NFL.com has him at 6'4", Draft Buzz at 6"5".

By the time I am done reviewing him today, he might be 6'10"! Talk about high pointing the ball.

I'm not convinced that some of the WR issues were not related to coaching. Let's hope someone knows how to operate these Ferraris. LaFleur? McHaffney?

I love all the picks thus far. I also hate to second guess Gute. However, critically speaking they could have done a lot better in the second round. I am not sure how their board ranked all the players. I know that in the second round they could have chosen either Mike Green Edge, or Trey Amos CB.

Both arguably were considered first round picks with Mike Green near the top of the list as being a devastating pass rusher. He dropped because of legal issues which at this point shouldn't matter. Every pick is a risk. If he stays out of trouble he is pro bowl material. The Ravens gladly added him to their already great defense. The great teams draft well. just sayin.

These selections reminded me that the Packers want to match the other teams in the division. They learned a lesson after getting little from their wideouts in the losses to the Lions, Vikings and Bears(add in Philly). Each team has at least two hard to cover receivers. The Packers receivers largely played small(or hurt) last season.
Now there's a speed burner and a large body to challenge the other team's corners, ala Jefferson and Addison at Minnesota.
I hope there's a d-tackle in the next selections, maybe an edge rusher and a corner. I think we'll see more defense on Saturday. But if Shadeur Sanders can go undrafted for three rounds, anything can happen.

Golden is a dog, this guy is a horse, so they now have a dog and pony show, great. I hope it doesn't work out that way. I don't think Golden "fell" to the Packers, He probably went a bit earlier actually, but they got what they think is a #1 WR, so that's fine. Amari Rodgers was a "dog on the field" too. Turns out they should've used him that way and let him catch frisbees in his mouth at halftime.

For what has been repeatedly referred to as a WR room LOADED with talent, then getting one early should've been enough. I still think Reed is the real deal, the others regressed, maybe they all take that step back. But with Kraft and Musgrave (if MLF knows what he's doing) they should be effective,

They can't pressure the QB. Everyone sees it. Maybe Van Ness lives up to his abilities. They would've been better off, even if a bit of a reach, taking an edge with this pick rather than another WR in their top three picks.

Given the Packers' success in drafting OL in the 4th round or later, I'm disappointed they passed on so many good CBs and DLs to select Bolton. However, I do like the Savion Williams pick, so if they wait to take Bolton in the 3rd, you probably won't get Savion. So maybe Gute knew what he was doing. A trade down appears to have been the best option, and I'm guessing Gute tried but couldn't find a suitable partner. In the first three rounds, we secured a top 3 WR (possibly the top one), a giant OL, and a potential Deebo Samuel clone, albeit larger. I'd say that's not bad.
