Each of Green Bay’s two first-round picks comes with question

marks http://www.packerslockerroom.com/authentic-j_mon-moore-jersey , but one thing that is not in question is the players’ athletic ability."The Green Bay Packers have two new athletes for their defense, thanks to general manager Brian Gutekunst’s decisions on Thursday night. Gutekunst made two picks in round one of the 2019 NFL Draft, and by selecting edge defender Rashan Gary at 12 and trading up for safety Darnell Savage at 21, the team has some tantalizing athletic ability at positions that sorely needed an injection of that very thing.However, both picks can be cause for trepidation, for different reasons. For Gary, questions about a shoulder injury and lack of college production will chase him throughout his NFL career. Meanwhile, Gutekunst will be criticized for taking Gary ahead of other edge rushers, particularly if they outperform the new Packer.The Savage pick will be scrutinized primarily regarding the trade up required to acquire him. As the only safety drafted in the first round Womens Kentrell Brice Jersey , it’s clear that the Packers could have had their pick of the remainder of the players at the position if they had stayed put at 30. However, they identified the guy that they viewed as being the clear top safety in the draft, and took the steps required to ensure that they landed him. Would those fourth-round picks they traded away be helpful on Saturday? Certainly. But there’s always the possibility of moving back into round four, given the team’s four remaining day-three draft picks.Packers spring surprises in further bolstering their defense | Packersnews.comIt was a bit of a shock when the Packers grabbed Rashan Gary over Brian Burns or Montez Sweat at 12. However, the concerns that caused Sweat to drop to the 26th pick appear to be more about his personality and temperament rather than medical concerns about his heart.

The Packers now have both a top pass rusher and a top safety."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections The APC PodcastPackers Film RoomFantasy Football AdviceCDTShareTweetShareShareFree-agent safety Adrian Amos will sign with Packers, per reportJeff Hanisch-USA TODAY SportsMere minutes after news broke that the Green Bay Packers landed a top free-agent pass rusher, the team has doubled down in free agency. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Packers are signing another high-profile free agent: this time it’s safety Adrian Amos.Amos’ contract is a four-year deal worth $37 million with $21 million to be paid out in the first two seasons, per Ian Rapaport of NFL Network. This move helps the Packers at a critical area of need Lance Kendricks Jersey White , but it also hurts a divisional rival, as Amos had played for the Chicago Bears over the last four years. The Bears drafted Amos out of Penn State in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft, and he has been a full-time starter since his rookie year. Amos has three interceptions in his career (all coming in the last two years), three forced fumbles, and two sacks. Given the flurry of safeties coming off the market on Monday, Amos was probably the second-best player remaining at the position, behind Earl Thomas.Amos fills a huge need at safety for the Packers. He had a solid performance at the 2015 NFL Combine, with a 4.56-second 40-yard dash and very good times in agility drills (4.03-second short shuttle and 7.09-second 3-cone).
