I like Jihaad Campbell in the first. Anyone who can improve the pass rush and get to the ball faster is an improvement. I like several LBs projected throughout the draft. I don’t care for McDuffie. There’s enough talent in this draft to significantly upgrade that position.
Agreed that the Packers can do better than McDuffie. I don't know Campbell well enough but I take your word he's a first-round talent (but what were his parents thinking when they named him?).

Cooper is the anchor of the LBs now. I'm all for putting more talent around him, or seeing if Hopper can be that guy. Anyway they can increase pressures on a QB - it's certainly a need whether it's at LB or Edge or both. This draft does seem pretty solid at DL, Edge, and maybe LB. And there appears to be a lot of value in rounds 3-5.

As for Quay Walker - he improved last year, but has to get better. If Cooper turns out to be a rusher, maybe hold Walker back to defend the run and drop into coverage, two things he's good at. No reason he can't be better with some coaching and teamwork.

I have to admit it bugs me when people talk of Jaire as maybe not being the right kind of person. What the hell do any of you know? A couple immature pranks? He gives it his all when he is out there. To answer the next question... Obviously
Agreed. He's a little whacky but it doesn't detract from his play, well when he can play. And I think he's held in high regard by his teammates.

I'm sure it's as frustrating for him to be injured as it is for the coaches and us fans. He's still young and if he's had his knee fixed this offseason, I expect he'll be back. If the Drs have still have injury questions, then I think Gluten walks away from him. That's a shame, but a player has to be available outside of a major injury like an ACL tear. Chronic injuries just don't work, and that's life in pro sports.
