The rest of the picks are more so depth picks but Arkansas WR Andrew Armstrong is another player who I think Gute may not be able to resist late in the draft. He has a similar skill set as Horton but produced in the SEC which makes him worthy of a dart throw.

My 4th round selection is one of my favorite selections and one that just feels right. Colorado State WR Tory Horton fits what Gute targets in receivers and could serve as a replacement for Christian Watson if he struggles to come back strong from his ACL injury.

My 3rd round selection honestly was just taking the best edge rusher available who meets what Gute typically targets. Ideally I'd like the Packers to take an edge rusher in round 2 or even round 1, but I don't think the board will fall in a way to make it worth reaching on a guy.

My 2nd round selection may seem odd but with Rasheed Walker and Zach Tom up for extensions + Jordan Morgan struggling to prove himself due to injury (also considering that he may be best as an offensive guard), I could see Gute taking a quality tackle to at least establish depth.

A lot of people are projecting the Packers to go WR or Edge at 23 but I think they go CB. I've seen Kentucky CB Maxwell Hairston as a popular pick here but I think Ole Miss CB is a better fit for their defense and a quality player in his own right.
