[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 907751, member: 12283"] Here are some thoughts on the upside and the down side for each of the Packers selections: [B]Eric Stokes, CB, UGA:[/B] [LIST] [*][B]Upside: [/B]Elite boundary corner who can play effectively in a variety of coverages and takes the ball away. [*][B]Downside: [/B]A stiff who plays because of draft pedigree, but gets shredded by effective route runners. [/LIST] [B]Josh Myers, OC, OSU:[/B] [LIST] [*][B]Upside: [/B]Top 5 center overall; foundation piece of the offensive line. [*][B]Downside: [/B]Perennial backup who can't play with enough leverage or stick to blocks. [/LIST] [B]Amari Rodgers, WR, CLEM:[/B] [LIST] [*][B]Upside: [/B]Triple threat big play machine in the receiving, motion, and return game. [*][B]Downside: [/B]Occasional gadget piece whose athleticism doesn't translate. [/LIST] [B]Royce Neman, OL, MISS:[/B] [LIST] [*][B]Upside: [/B]Reliable starter at RT or OG. [*][B]Downside: [/B]Backup who you hope never sees the field. [/LIST] [B]Tedarell Slaton, iDL, FLA:[/B] [LIST] [*][B]Upside: [/B]Immovable two gapper who shuts down opposing running games and offers the occasional bull rush. [*][B]Downside: [/B]Eats his way out of the league. [/LIST] [B]Shemar Jean-Charles, CB, APP:[/B] [LIST] [*][B]Upside: [/B]Primary slot corner whose feistiness and ball skills really help the defense. [*][B]Downside: [/B]Size and athleticism limitations keep him from being able to get to the catch point like he did in college. [/LIST] [B]Cole Van Lanen, OL, WISC:[/B] [LIST] [*][B]Upside: [/B]Reliable starter on the inside, most likely at guard. [*][B]Downside: [/B]Pass pro limitations keep him from even making the roster out of camp. [/LIST] [B]Isaiah McDuffie, LB, BC:[/B] [LIST] [*][B]Upside: [/B]Starting off-ball linebacker who can remain on the field for passing downs without being a liability. [*][B]Downside: [/B]Never rises above the level of core special teamer. [/LIST] [B]Kylin Hill, RB, MSU:[/B] [LIST] [*][B]Upside: [/B]Forces his way into the RB rotation-- would be an RB2 or even lead of a committee elsewhere. [*][B]Downside: [/B]Healthy scratch every week. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
