of the Packet A Podcast I'm your Host Any Harmony

1:41

file me on Twitter at any Herman Nfl they so

1:43

much for Been here today. it's a little bit after

1:46

around once of place obviously did the full livestream so

1:48

if you want to get my initial got reactions you

1:50

can go back and listen to that but wanted to

1:52

take a couple seconds to let the picked I just

1:54

a little bit digits a little bit of research and

1:56

then sort of put my initial reaction to the pick

1:58

up. So here we go. What's your been right

2:01

away. I'll do a much deeper dive on tomorrow

2:03

show and start going over what options Green Bay

2:05

had and what they could look forward to in

2:07

day to and although sort of things. but this

2:09

is just gonna be my quick initial study Reported

2:11

reaction to the Jordy Morgan selection so. Obviously

2:14

office of I'm in Arizona are very telling

2:16

that they announced him as an offensive tackle

2:18

and if you have you sort of and

2:20

paying attention to the process. What?

2:22

Have we been saying all along. Green. Bay

2:24

Values high end players at premium

2:26

positions and office to tackle as

2:28

one of those premium positions. Jordy

2:31

Morgan fits everything that they look

2:33

for. It's why when we did

2:35

that to round mock draft the other day,

2:37

Jordy Morgan was the peg. It's why number

2:39

two on my motives and twenty five most

2:41

likely Packer airplay or picks to be a

2:43

Green Bay Packers Jordan more than it's why

2:46

on my short list of players that either

2:48

stain or if they traded back, Jordan Morgan

2:50

is a player that screamed off the page.

2:52

Whether you like him or you don't like

2:54

them or anything in between, he screamed Green

2:57

Bay Packers Six Five Three Eleven, Nine Point

2:59

Two Four. Relative athletic score. Although he did

3:01

not to the agility testing, ninety two percent

3:03

of. Your athlete at the position at

3:05

often to tackle again despite not doing

3:08

arm the the agility testing. And

3:10

my opinion, if you watch him on tape the

3:13

agility great. I don't have any questions about the

3:15

edge of your the agility only Cooper to Gene

3:17

for example. If. If you know

3:19

that eve when he does he do the agility

3:21

testing. There's a legitimate questions as like how would

3:23

he have tested This is a lot. A straight

3:25

line speed and not always the twitching this from

3:28

the gene and you wonder I like did he

3:30

not do it because he would have tested poorly.

3:32

I don't have that same level of beer which

3:34

order Morgan when I watch him on the tape

3:36

season. Extremely clean mover. He can change directions. I

3:38

have zero concern over that whatsoever. Clearly

3:41

Green Bay felt the same way because the agility

3:43

that are testing is one of the key indicators

3:45

as to whether or not they usually take a

3:48

guy on anywhere at along the Office of Wine,

3:50

much less in the first round. So again, I

3:52

would not have any concern about the lack

3:54

of agility testing. The agility looks fantastic on tape

3:56

he twenty two years old. he turned twenty

3:58

three in August. Again and usually day

4:01

of draft they take twenty two were younger

4:03

what she was twenty two years old. I'm

4:05

it's tough you know again if he meant

4:07

meets Olive Green Bay's thresholds at the office

4:09

of one position without doing the agility tough

4:11

seen over his everything else except one thing.

4:14

This is the one thing I pointed out prior

4:16

to the draft of wood. Green Bay make a

4:18

little bit of an exception here. He.

4:20

Does not have thirty three inch arms. That

4:22

has been sort of the cut off point

4:25

for Green Bay when they've taken off and

4:27

of tackles in the past. He is just

4:29

underneath they are. Ah, what's thirty two inch

4:31

arms? Yeah, thirty two and seven eighths. To.

4:34

Thirty two and seven eighths in arms over an

4:36

eighth of an inch away. so he basically had

4:38

that to have been real estate year. But other

4:41

than that again, we don't know the agility testing

4:43

so we can complete that full profile. But assuming,

4:45

like I said earlier, Green Bay felt good about

4:47

the agility overall, which they should based on the

4:50

tape. Again, outside of the one eighth of an

4:52

inch arms, his everything along the offensive line that

4:54

they look for. Also played

4:56

at the Senior Bowl. Something that Green Bay

4:59

has had a propensity of drafting players from

5:01

is the senior bowl nut spend a trend

5:03

of there's as well and then the big

5:05

word versatility. I. Swear to

5:08

you on everything. When. I ask

5:10

brain dude against. What? He was

5:12

let you know at at often to tackle I

5:14

said me a what about these big offensive tackles

5:16

the i'm. Tyler. Guidance and

5:18

the Way Thumbs and the A Marius memes and

5:20

his initial response was yeah we like bigger, faster,

5:22

stronger and he went on a little bit more

5:25

in his answer and he could have ended at

5:27

their i talked about the see other days but

5:29

he didn't. He. Went on to say. But

5:31

we really value versatility and we had a

5:33

lot of success Drafting versatile often sublime it

5:36

in the past, and we plan on continuing

5:38

to do that moving forward. When

5:40

he said that in my mind. I

5:42

immediately went that's sorta Martin like to hit

5:45

that is Jordan Morgan and I'm so mad

5:47

odd that I didn't have him as my

5:49

official prediction. I will with Guyton, But as

5:51

I mentioned, all long this is a player

5:53

that screams off as a potential Green Bay

5:55

Packers. and clearly it's Green Bay. Liked what

5:58

they saw. This is a player that. The

6:00

would have expected them to like based on all

6:02

the traits all the testing on the tape will

6:04

get into a just the moment but on everything.

6:06

Else on what they look for, this is it.

6:09

From. A Pff Same points in Twenty nine

6:11

senior ninety four snaps of. The Find: Fifty

6:13

nine Point One grade And twenty twenty one hundred

6:15

and forty seven snaps of the forty seven point

6:17

Four grade. Twenty. Twenty One, Seven

6:19

Hundred and Six snaps. Of the fifty three point

6:22

one grade source for three years bit of a

6:24

show specifically that Thirty Right as a first two

6:26

were basically just spot planes. I'm here in there.

6:28

And Twenty Twenty One again, seven hundred and six

6:30

naps. Of the fifty three point One grade, I

6:32

was a bit of a struggle. They comes back,

6:34

and twenty Twenty two, six. Hundred and Seventy snaps

6:36

As and Eighty three. Point One Grade, then had

6:39

a torn a Cel. comes back in twenty

6:41

Twenty three right away and plays seven hundred

6:43

and eighty seven snaps and played better. Eighty

6:45

three, Point Five Grade, and Twenty Twenty Three.

6:49

As twelve career penalties for in twenty

6:51

Twenty Three, a Pff credit him with

6:53

only three sacks over the past two

6:55

years on over nine hundred pass blocking

6:57

snaps. Since. Zeus or three three

7:00

sacks in nine hundred pass block snaps

7:02

so one out of every three hundred

7:04

pass. Pro. Snaps in college in the

7:07

last two years. Sorting Morgan gave up

7:09

a pressure a sack on excuse me

7:11

He gave up thirty one total pressures

7:13

in those last two seasons. again on

7:16

nine over nine hundred pass protection snapped

7:18

so again, still very good numbers. There

7:20

and then had a ninety seven percent or

7:22

ninety seven point eight percent pass. Block

7:24

Efficiency and Twenty Twenty Two and Ninety

7:27

Eight Point Three and Twenty Twenty Three

7:29

both very good numbers. To. Time

7:31

team captain including this past season. Coaches

7:34

are according to a variety of scouts

7:36

arm and are Dame Brewery no mention

7:38

this is Wealth Coaches spoke extremely highly

7:40

of him. He was in the weight

7:42

room constantly, was considered a leader on

7:44

the team obviously which again translates and

7:46

been a two time captain. I.

7:48

Know brand new to can spoken his press

7:50

conference about the ability to recover from that

7:52

a cel play through it. He thought like

7:54

hey, he's probably going to come back and

7:56

struggle. Bet ya at the beginning of twenty

7:58

Twenty Three and for duty. The not and I

8:00

a again you have to give him credit for to

8:02

been able to come back so quick and then just

8:05

really place and a pretty high level right away coming

8:07

back from that torn a cel injury. He's.

8:09

Been a starter at left tackle. That's another thing

8:11

that Green Bay looks for. It's not just necessarily

8:13

the versatility, but they love those players that are

8:15

plain the most premium position on the offensive line

8:18

which is usually considered left tackle. If you can

8:20

play their, it means your Office of Wine put

8:22

a lot interesting you. I talked about Calais Mckinstry

8:24

I when I broke down his film and I

8:26

said one of the things that you have to

8:28

recognize is that there are some rough. Tape.

8:31

From Koolaid Mckinstry. One

8:33

of the reasons there is that ruff tape

8:36

is because Alabama trusted him wholeheartedly. They put

8:38

him on an island, they put him in

8:40

man to man coverage, and they said good

8:42

luck. And. They knew he was going to get

8:44

beat sometimes, but they knew that a lot of times we can.

8:46

Serious or yeah, Mckinstry was gonna win one on

8:48

one and they gave him that assignment and they

8:50

trusted them and he got the job done more

8:53

often than not see have the great of with

8:55

the understanding of they put him in poor positions

8:57

and more often than not he still succeeded. So.

8:59

Yes, there's going to be some bad of unsafe

9:02

and it's a little bit of a similarity here

9:04

which already morgan that they trusted him on an

9:06

island at left Tackle. They didn't help. I'm a

9:08

ton Whoever he was going against late to arm

9:10

trace it didn't matter, they put him on that

9:12

island and they let him pass. Pro. And

9:14

they'd they'd The fact that they trusted them in

9:16

put him at that premium position. I think Green

9:19

Bay value that it's on as well. The other

9:21

thing here's the Packers love these type of players

9:23

and they've had a huge track. Record over

9:25

the years of taking these ultra athletic

9:27

tackles in college and in figuring out

9:29

where they fit in the Nfl. I

9:32

think it is noteworthy that they. Have announced him

9:34

as a tackle or Bill Belichick I'm

9:37

spoke extremely highly of him after the

9:39

picked by Green Bay and said he's

9:41

really smart player really like them and

9:43

said he's a left tackle. He. Said

9:45

he he didn't think there's any question about that. That

9:47

he is a left tackle. That's interesting

9:49

because you do have received Walker there.

9:52

So how does that play out? That.

9:54

Five Guys. I. Think that yeah,

9:56

maybe toward him Organ plays left tackle long

9:58

term? Maybe he plays. Right tackle. Maybe eventually

10:01

goes over. There may be this year you let

10:03

Morgan sort of be the swing guy. What will

10:05

get to that more? Just a moment. But as

10:07

far as Bill Belichick was concerned, who knows a

10:09

few things about football. In the offensive line. He

10:12

saw him as a left tackle. And didn't think

10:14

there's any question about that whatsoever. So whether

10:16

he's a young the guard, versatility and whether

10:19

you'll eventually as to move and we shall

10:21

see but Bill Belichick viewed him specifically as

10:23

a tackle. Here was my study reported this

10:25

is my scouting report not influence than anything

10:27

else prior to the draft arm and you

10:29

can again this is may even go back

10:32

and watch the Odd Young live draft show

10:34

and I gave this right away so this

10:36

is not been altered in any way. This.

10:38

Is my are again real scouting report of

10:40

him prior to the draft. Clean mover in

10:43

the run game can get to a spots

10:45

and worse really well in his own scheme

10:47

which is what the Packers run especially. As

10:49

a backside blocker also could be elite as

10:51

a polar and I think you will need

10:53

to play garden. The Nfl. I was just

10:55

my opinion again breaking them down. Initially everything is

10:58

a little bit broken. He's going to need to

11:00

get reworked from the ground up. His hands need

11:02

work is placement is outside it's on which can

11:04

lead to more holding. Penalties is had drops.

11:06

That's something that he really needs to clean

11:08

up. That's an easy fix. So, but that's

11:11

something that you work on. balance, You work

11:13

on keeping everything. Forward and up and

11:15

not in a get down and your stance

11:17

plane with better leverage, but he will drop

11:20

his head When you drop your had. You're

11:22

susceptible to a variety of different movies. Are

11:24

young, pulls off balance, everything. I'm. You.

11:27

His footwork needs a lot of work. He has a

11:29

very clean over the as. Fast feet so

11:31

these traits are there for the for

11:33

work but where he places his feet

11:35

in this position in these a lot

11:37

of cleaning up and overall it just

11:39

needs a much better level of technique

11:41

and work. Overall he is susceptible to

11:43

towners bull his speed russia's and he

11:45

really lacks any consistency and past for

11:47

whatsoever. Now again, the from an efficiency

11:49

standpoint, how many sacks the allowed, there's

11:51

good numbers there. Are Mike Wall

11:54

actually was talking about him and talked about

11:56

how you know there's a little bar tauscher

11:58

to him and he's a one hundred. Rak.

12:01

A. What that means is Kosher wasn't always

12:03

the sexiest plane the position, but he

12:05

got the job done. And. It

12:07

wasn't always the exact technique you wanted, was always the

12:09

right foot work with us but see found a way

12:11

to just make sure that he was in between the

12:14

you know defender in his quarterback. And

12:16

there's a little bit of that was already Morgan where

12:18

you watch it From a technical standpoint. I like to

12:20

have their this a lot of work here but then

12:22

again you sort of go back at the end of the

12:24

tape you're like aren't like he didn't allow lot of sacks,

12:26

not a lot of pressures is. A lot of things you

12:28

would have liked him to do better but at the end of

12:30

the day's gonna say like job done. But I

12:32

do think there's a lot of technical work there

12:34

again that needs to be put in for more

12:36

than he is not a physical mover in the

12:39

run game is more fun as player or he

12:41

does show some upside their meaning specifically I'm back

12:43

Tom backside blocks yeah you will see him get

12:45

a load them or physical. Oh be more aggressive,

12:47

those are the easier ones. To do, but I do

12:49

see a little bit of that tenacity. Their from time

12:51

to time it shows up in spurts are but I

12:53

do think again he's more of up for Nasrallah are

12:55

blocker at this time and you want to see it's

12:57

a little bit more that nasty, a little bit more

12:59

that aggressiveness specifically in the run game be a little

13:01

bit more of a mover, but again he's in a

13:03

zone blocking scheme and he's gonna probably be a little

13:05

bit more that furnace offensive lineman. Traits.

13:08

Wise, there is a lot to

13:10

like and. He easily looks the

13:12

part. Maybe. The move inside will

13:14

benefit him enough and that those as the big thing

13:17

here is when you just turn on the tape and

13:19

you look at your to Morgan had. Funny Mike

13:21

Wall said the exact same thing to have.

13:23

like he's not gonna look employer. He.

13:25

Looks like yeah that he looks like an

13:27

Nfl offensive tackle. you just be a picture

13:29

me or like edges gonna fit their easily

13:31

only watch him like there's this desire of

13:33

like all three just put it together because

13:35

when you see I'm like play well it

13:38

looks really good but insists so freakin' inconsistent.

13:40

ah I'm in a like is that it

13:42

all the traits are there. he looks the

13:44

part and whether or not that move inside

13:46

the whether he needs. It. I do always

13:48

like the fact that that's an option. meaning

13:50

hey, we can start him at tackle. Left

13:52

tackle. Right tackle that doesn't work. Out you

13:54

still have out, he still have options and

13:56

left guard, right guard would be some potential

13:58

options. Well we know how much. Guti values

14:00

that versatility and give us big thing that he

14:02

said when I asked him about those big offensive

14:05

tackles. Nom. I said he's

14:07

going to be a project and I just worry that

14:09

he's going to come in and struggle right away and

14:11

teams are going to struggle to get him in

14:13

the right path and he just and up floundering as

14:15

a backup offensive lineman for his career. This is

14:17

a very noteworthy one that I think is a really

14:20

important one to take away here. Buckeyes. Seem.

14:22

Fit matters for Jordy Morgan a

14:24

lot. And Green

14:27

Bay's a very good team Fit form say

17:19

of has just lost the respect of

17:22

the youth league football team he causes.

17:24

He was asked what New England should

17:26

do in the draft and his answer

17:29

was subjectively terrible. The Athletic just wrote

17:31

a great article about this, but Still

17:33

Of doesn't have the Athletic for the

17:35

respective. a boisterous group of eleven year

17:38

olds who once looked up to him

17:40

learn from, still have their get the

17:42

Athletic and get the info you need

17:45

to speak draft fluently. Theoretically.

17:48

He doesn't have to come in and play from day

17:50

one. You. Have a starting lineup that is.

17:53

Sat right now if he wanted to

17:55

be proceed. Walker, Ellen Jenkins, Josh Myers,

17:57

Sean, Ryan and Zach Them. Off.

18:00

We're ready to go and start if you need them to.

18:02

If Jordy Morgan is not ready and he needs a little

18:04

bit of time to clean up some of those things I

18:06

just mentioned, you have the ability to give him a little

18:08

bit of time assuming you don't have any injuries right away.

18:10

How. Much time he gets that remains to be seen. But

18:13

he could also compete with Rashid Walker left

18:15

tackle, compete with Sean Ryan a guard, and

18:17

if Josh Myers. Is the weak link and you

18:20

want to bench him? I'm there's options there

18:22

to whether it's movie in fact, I'm inside

18:24

and putting Morgan at right tackle or whether

18:26

it's Ellen Jenkins inside and forty Morgan at

18:28

left guard. So. Green Bay's gonna

18:30

have some options there when it comes to

18:32

versatility and one of the things like regardless

18:34

how you feel about the pick yeah, have

18:36

to feel good. From an Office of Wine

18:38

standpoint when you have three guys and Elton

18:40

Jenkins, Jordan Morgan and Zoc Com that have

18:43

is much versatility that they do along the

18:45

offensive line that's gonna give your Adam Savage

18:47

map the for loop buckets a ton of

18:49

a flexibility with how they ultimately put that

18:51

often of wine together where he projects in

18:53

the Nfl. Far be it for me to

18:55

argue with Bill Belichick, or you could easily.

18:57

Slot a minute that you're left tackle

19:00

spot of that's Rebel Attacks thinks he's

19:02

best. I personally think Guard. Is where he

19:04

will ultimately end up. But you let him

19:06

figure that out. You don't have to. Did

19:08

you know Declare he shall be a tackle?

19:10

He shall be a guard. Let's. See, let's

19:12

get him into training camp and mini camp and

19:14

rookie minicamp a note yeas and let's let his

19:16

career play out a little. Before we say

19:18

you're sick. A fork in him as tackle. He

19:21

can't play there and give them every opportunity, but if

19:23

it doesn't work out well, maybe work. I'm in a

19:25

garden see if it works out there, but I don't

19:27

think. You have to make that the sewage. I know you

19:29

don't have to make that decision right now in there is

19:31

going to be some opportunity for him to be flexible on

19:33

that often. Some wine. Far as like Green

19:35

Bay's options for they've traded up for they have

19:37

traded down. Yes, I would have liked to seen

19:39

Green Bay be a little bit more aggressive in

19:41

trading up. I thought there are a lot of

19:43

options like even Byron Murphy folly. and on some

19:45

of that like yeah for Tano falling a little

19:48

bit Syrian Arnold when he on Mitchell I thought

19:50

there were a lot of options for Green Bay

19:52

to potentially move up on, probably not have to

19:54

give up a ton and may be secure a

19:56

big time player in this draft. Even still, it

19:58

looked like there were going to be. Players had

20:00

fall the Green Bay it up not being the

20:02

case. They. Have the opportunity

20:04

to say Grand Partner Cooper to Gene they say

20:06

Jordy Morgan over him Brand you're Just was asked

20:08

about moving up in. He said there are players

20:10

that we thought about moving up for and they

20:12

recognized early that that was not going to be

20:15

the case. So my opinion is they were not

20:17

really in on. Quinney on Mitchell are tearing Arnold

20:19

They were not in on your for town. Who

20:21

are some of those guys? because it sounds like

20:23

the guys who were interested in trading up for

20:25

were. Earlier. In the draft, which is interesting because

20:27

they were offensive. Players right? I doubt it was

20:29

a wide receiver, so was it one of

20:31

the office of Wyman? Was it lay some?

20:33

Was it for Sean who was a young

20:35

one of those guys? That maybe makes little

20:38

bit more sense. Ah, but it's an interesting

20:40

conversation point, but it clearly became apparent to

20:42

do what he said in his press conference

20:44

that they were heater going to stay or

20:46

move down if they stayed Grand Bargain Cooper

20:48

to Gene still on the board, Tyler Guyton

20:50

still on the board. Those have been other

20:52

options. It is surprising to me that.

20:54

These to alter versatile Graham Barton and

20:56

you know, Jordy Morgan or on the.

20:59

Board. At the same time. And

21:01

they went with Morgan over Barton. I think

21:03

that's a pretty big upset. But here's. The tell

21:05

here to. They announced story Morgan as a tackle

21:08

Tampa Bay you select Rampart right after announced burden

21:10

as a center. If Green Bay viewed Barton as

21:12

a center of probably never going to be somebody

21:14

they took in the first round, that's not what

21:16

they do, and it's very likely the case that

21:18

they viewed him at minimum as. An interior

21:21

often sublime and only and again it is

21:23

noteworthy that they announced ah, Jordy Morgan That

21:25

tackle. That doesn't mean that Graham Bart. Might

21:27

not want ever way better career or a Cupertino.

21:29

Know a lot of people wanted to gene, but

21:31

it's also noteworthy does he did not go round

21:33

one. It's also nor were like I said

21:35

the I didn't I didn't think the scene was going to

21:37

be that the pick their I had a my my short

21:39

list but ah if you look at scheme fit and things

21:41

like that it's not a perfect fit. I've talked about that

21:44

all week. I said I thought there was a very good. Chance

21:46

that Gene would be on the board and they

21:48

would not selective in. That's exactly what happened. I.

21:50

Didn't know, necessarily that. They're going

21:52

to take Jordan Morgan that early, but not super surprised.

21:54

By it either arm, Again

21:57

the that a lot of different options there. Is

21:59

but. Fairly yeah, there's a lot of other

22:01

options. That I think we're we're potentially better options are

22:03

specifically with moving up a little bit to get acquainted on

22:06

Mitchell attending Arnold one of those guys that I think go

22:08

to come in and and just been a beautiful fit from

22:10

day one but and south away goody saw it and you

22:12

have to sort of give him a little bit of the

22:14

benefit of the doubt. right? Now the fit

22:16

is going to be a rotational player. Is

22:19

yeah I think he's going to have the ability to

22:21

be at worst the first guy up off the offensive.

22:23

Line he's going to play this season. There's

22:25

no. Question about it: Whether he wins the left

22:27

tackle job? Whether he wins the right guard job?

22:30

Whether they shuffle around the office of wine exact?

22:32

Ah, moves inside? In the mood yet? He

22:34

plays like tackle or it just takes one injury

22:36

and. He's the first guy up he will play

22:38

this year. Neil probably play a lot that be

22:40

my guess so I know lot of people are

22:42

thing or another project and he yeah he might

22:44

not project as a day one starter meeting. He

22:47

might not be week one starting at one of

22:49

those spots. And that's not the worst thing in the world. But.

22:51

I guarantee you he's gonna play the season

22:53

and probably. Play a lot because they're going to

22:55

be a lot of injuries along that often to

22:58

why it happens every single year and at worst

23:00

he's. Gonna be first man up and I'd still

23:02

be willing to back even though again I have

23:04

my trepidation Son Jordan Morgan. I'd.

23:06

Be willing to bet that he's better than

23:08

John Ryan right away. I. Know whether he's

23:10

better than Rashid. Walker will remain to be seen and if

23:13

he wins the left tackle spot knees better than recede. As

23:15

not necessarily anything that's terrible about that either, that's

23:17

a win for Green Bay. I think he will

23:19

play the season. I think will be if

23:22

at worst the first guy up off the

23:24

bench and I think there's a huge fit

23:26

long term here. It would not surprise me

23:28

if the the long term place is for

23:30

him to be first guy up right now

23:32

but by the time next year olds around

23:34

Josh Myers walk in free agency is Zack

23:36

Thomas the center. And Jordy Morgan becomes

23:38

your starter at right tackle. From there or

23:40

movies have a conversation of the want to

23:42

put Morgan at left, tackle him over she'd

23:44

right tackle. Either way they will absolutely have

23:47

some options and I do think he is

23:49

a fit both short term and long term

23:51

for this team at this is what sort

23:53

of upside you get from I'm now and

23:55

how high of that upside to be reached

23:57

in the future. This. Is as good of

23:59

a spot. For Jordan Morgan to wait in

24:01

the Nfl, Green Bay has a history of

24:03

developing players exactly like this along the Office

24:06

of Wine, and he doesn't necessarily have to

24:08

come in and play right away. This.

24:10

Is a such a key important piece

24:12

for a developmental player Like more then

24:14

why do think isn't ready set go

24:16

from day one but has all the

24:18

traits all the tools and Green Bay

24:20

knows how to sort of mine these

24:23

players and then develop them into something

24:25

way better as time goes along. To

24:27

be interesting to see what this means for a

24:30

seed, Walker does Morgan get the real opportunity to

24:32

start a left tackle and then again, what happens

24:34

to Walker from there. And another thing I'll just

24:36

say here to his. Duty.

24:38

The is known for taking these home run

24:40

swings in the first round. Highly athletic players

24:42

at premium positions that he thinks can become

24:45

pro ball players have their respective spots. He.

24:47

Clearly sees shorting Morgan as a potential high end

24:49

offensive tackle that could be a pro bowl caliber

24:52

player. their into the future for takes a couple

24:54

years to get there. He's willing to do that

24:56

and I guess I do still think there's a

24:58

role for him to play this upcoming season, but

25:00

this is a bit of a home run swing

25:03

for Guti. He's not afraid to. Take it And

25:05

then he attacks dates who and a three the draft.

25:07

With players that are usually able to meaning

25:09

complete a little bit more right now and

25:11

I might get I'm not saying that Morgan

25:13

can't be that, but this is another home

25:15

run left apple swaying that he feels like

25:17

could be a big time long term play

25:19

for the Green Bay Packers. It's. Also

25:21

worth noting that he was fantastic. Get senior.

25:23

Bowl practices. I'm Jim Nagy, the senior Bowl

25:25

director shuttered about than said. he went back

25:28

and watched all the one on ones and

25:30

that more. He did lose a single one.

25:32

It's and that this is a couple months

25:34

ago in February actually said he should be

25:36

a first round lock. Or

25:38

didn't burglar. For those I'm thinking like this. a

25:40

massive reach for Green Bay Us be clear I

25:43

had i'm i'm late date to on my board

25:45

doesn't matter again it to who cares by odds

25:47

a burglar on his board had I'm twenty ninth

25:49

overall. He. Went twenty fifth. So.

25:51

I know some people and he was a

25:54

second, a burglar, second guard, Are behind

25:56

only for Tano. So. I know

25:58

I get a lot of people thought that. Like

26:00

a this is a huge reach your maybe it is. A

26:02

good not what I probably would have done at that

26:04

particular spot in the draft. But a lot of

26:07

people adam a lot earlier like it's a burglar

26:09

and nine it's only four spots off. I know

26:11

I, Daniel Jeremiah I think was a little bit

26:13

lower at the youth and like the sixties for

26:15

Daniel Jeremiah, but his his rangers all over the

26:17

place. but there are a lot of people that

26:19

were expecting Jordy Morgan to go at the end

26:21

of round one. you go to Twenty Five, not

26:23

that much ahead of where I think he probably

26:26

would ended up whether Green Bay took him or

26:28

not. Could they have. Moved down and so

26:30

got more than maybe. Maybe,

26:32

But it is important as a Gm that you

26:34

get the guy that you. Want and as

26:37

a as it is very very clear. That.

26:39

Pick was in when they got on the

26:41

clock. They then they need sounds like duty

26:43

had opportunities to move down. He was very

26:45

transparent about that that they had options on

26:48

the table. Sounds like Detroit called them to

26:50

move down before they eventually got one pick

26:52

ahead of Green Bay interfering Arnold Arm. But.

26:54

It sounds like the had plenty of options.

26:56

He said no to those opportunities and he

26:59

immediately took Morgan. I don't think if hearing

27:01

Arnold's on the board, I think they take

27:03

door to Morgan. I think there's I think.

27:05

There were going to take him. I think that I'm. Pretty high

27:07

in their board based on how quick that pick a men

27:10

and based on and you sort of green that he leaves

27:12

of what good he had available from a trade standpoint. This

27:15

was their guy. And. If it is always

27:17

important that if you have that guy in your

27:19

board, you have the conviction to take him. He.

27:22

Looked as if you move down. five spots are forced,

27:24

three spots, whatever and he gets taken to picks later.

27:27

You're going to hate it and you're gonna be frustrated by it.

27:30

And you don't wanna have somebody else drive that

27:32

car off the lot when you behind it for

27:34

so long. So again, could he have made me

27:36

move down? pick up a fourth round pick? I

27:38

think maybe could have, but if he had the

27:40

conviction to say screw that, I'm not risking it.

27:42

And that means he loves the player. Not a

27:44

good sign that he cared that much, that he

27:46

wasn't willing to risk gets. And he wanted him

27:48

that much at pick twenty Five. Ah, he struggled.

27:51

Against Trace, I mention that. Are

27:53

but he did really well against late you who was

27:55

the first defensive player taken in this draft the watch

27:57

the U C L A they've been held up really

27:59

really well. But again, Breland Trace from

28:01

Washington gave him a ton of problems are by the

28:03

way, I posted one clip that was the one pick

28:05

I had of Jordy Morgan. What I said, no comment

28:08

I made. I I didn't need to put a bunch

28:10

of comments and added mean like that doesn't matter either

28:12

way, I'm. I do think

28:14

he's gonna need some protein. Like I said, the traits are there.

28:17

Here's my ultimate sort of break down here

28:19

to I think there are better options: Yes

28:21

to I trust Beauty Yes. Do I trust

28:24

the packers that developing this exact specific type

28:26

of offensive line to? They've done it forever.

28:28

Yes. Are all of Jordan Morgan's issues on

28:30

tape fixable? Issues: This is another really

28:33

important one. Yes, There. Is nothing

28:35

on tape that says that his issues cannot

28:37

be fixable in the Nfl. Will. How

28:39

much time will need Will see does he go

28:41

to a place where they have all the resources

28:44

and coaches needed to fix those issues. Yeah.

28:46

He does in that if you're willing to have

28:48

some excitement outside of Bill Belichick, been super pumped

28:50

about the pick and loving the pact that's. Another

28:53

thing thing to be really excited about his again

28:55

Green Bay's that a long history of drafting these

28:57

type of players and developing them and usually those

28:59

guys are third, fourth, fifth round picks. They thought

29:02

even more of Morgan in the first round as

29:04

I type of developmental prospects. As I said he

29:06

will play in Twenty Twenty Four. The goal is

29:08

to have him be a legitimate big time starting

29:11

caliber often sublime and by next year when you

29:13

may want to move on from Josh Myers at

29:15

that time and then you're probably have to do

29:17

a little bit of reshuffling along the Office of

29:19

Wine in Twenty Twenty Five, but you want him

29:22

ready to go. Been a legitimate starter in

29:24

Twenty Twenty Five, by the way. Dallas.

29:26

Turner in the division. Minnesota gets him

29:28

with their second pack on. There's gonna

29:30

be some really good pass rushers month

29:33

as in Chicago. Dallas, Turner and I'm

29:35

a grown art in Minnesota. Eight Hutchinson

29:37

in Detroit. You need these type of

29:40

players on your roster. How high? The

29:42

ceiling Morgan gets to will have. To wait

29:44

and see. But there's reasons. To understand this

29:46

pic, there's reasons to be frustrated by it

29:48

as a settle long no matter where. You

29:50

are on the spectrum of levine or

29:52

hating the pick. There are traits with

29:54

all these guys that are worth developing

29:57

and worth loving. and there are weaknesses

29:59

for every single. Them as well. Now it's

30:01

up to the Packers in Jordy Morgan to

30:03

mitigate those. Weaknesses that are there on tape and

30:05

it's up to the Packers to get the most

30:07

out of all of those strengths that he is

30:09

legitimately using with from a potential standpoint. I that's

30:11

my I'd probably a little bit longer than my

30:13

gut reaction break down and I may be wanted

30:15

to be but a lot of good stuff to

30:17

go over. I'll let me know you feel about

30:19

the pic. Would love to hear from you guys

30:21
