3 for Tyson Jackson
2 for Brian Oropko and Malcolm Jenkins
Any of those would seem to be helpful. Even if they take WR Michael Crabtree, anything less than a DT and a DE in rounds 1-3, will be an admission that either:
a. The Packers' current defensive philosophy is not to contest the line of scrimmage but make a tackle on running plays within five yards of the line of scrimmage. On passing plays, the philosophy is to assume that FA stumble bums will at least occupy a blocker and speedy linebackers will create pressure on the QB. But when a team can average five years per carry, why do their opponents even need to pass?
b. Ted Thompson is delusional in his hopes that Jolly will be available and Jenkins and Pickett won't get sidelined, dinged-up to the point of ineffectiveness, or ever tire. The case that Thompson thinks Mike Montgomery is anything but a liability vs. the run and a non-factor vs. the pass is already pretty clear. Notice I have not even mentioned the ultimate delusion, that J.H. guy actually contributing?
Now are we ready to bang our heads with our draft boards? It's looking more and more like a "crabby" day.
