2013 draft prospects

May not be the flashiest pick but it could arguably be the wisest: Barrett Jones- Alabama.

The kid offers versatility at possibly all 5 of the offensive line positions and would solidify our offensive front for years to come while protecting our best asset in Cam Newton. Jordan Gross is aging and I'm not quite sure Byron Bell is a long-time solution to the RT position. Barrett may not have prototypical size for the NFL's tackle position, but stick him at RG, replace Hangartner, and the running game behind a core of Amini/Kalil/Jones will continue to be a strength well into the foreseeable future. Jones' versatility and familiarity with all positions on the line make him a candidate I think.

Round 2: Depending on the holes come season's end...DT/CB/S/DE and go best available.

Justin Hunter might be the best WR prospect in this years draft. He is beating Marcus Roberson (UF's best CB) easily. Love him as a prospect. Just don't know if I could see us taking a WR in the first round.

im a Hunter fan as well, but im more of a Keenan Allen fan. what he could do with run after catch is great. plus Hunter is coming off that acl injury.i could really see us taking a WR in the 1st round.

    • It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).   
    • Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
    • It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
