As the Packers were getting ready to select at number 14, they made the move to trade down to the 27th pick as New Orleans traded up giving the Packers a fifth round pick along with next year’s first. Saints drafted Marcus Davenport with that pick, which is surprising to say the least. Packers will be picking at the 27th spot unless they decide to move back up at some point in the first round. I feel that might happen. Even with Trumaine Edmunds and Derwin James on the table, this isn’t a bad thing for the Packers to move back.

Couple things to chew on as we wait to see what the Packers do in the next hour or so. One, they think there’s a chance James could be there in the late teens. Same goes for Harold Landry (Don’t think he’s getting past Detroit though). Packers are now up to 13 picks, and it would be foolish not to move back up for a player they want.

Getting the pick for next season is like a rare unicorn. New Orleans obviously feels like they can contend for a Super Bowl and believe that pick might be at the bottom of the first anyways. That’s a risky move without question. Let’s see what the Packers do tonight.

Charlie.
