Six running backs down. Six more to go. That’s right – six. With that being the case, let’s skip the cute intro and get right to it, shall we? Toby Gerhart, Stanford The numbers: 6-feet, 1-inch, 235 pounds…recently turned 23 years old…4.50 40-yard dash time at the combine…consensus first team All American in 2009…runner-up for the Heisman Trophy…1,871 rushing [...] We’ve covered three of the top backs in the 2010 draft already. But in a running back-heavy draft such as this one, there are obviously many more to get to. So, what do you say we get to a few more right now? Does that sound good to you? Yeah – that’s what we thought. Ryan Matthews, Fresno State The [...] When you look at the Green Bay Packers’ offense there aren’t too many glaring needs, outside of the line.

As Adam said earlier, interior o-line is a [...] No red flags or serious holes in his game and looks like to be a protypical fit in the zone blocking scheme. If there is a run on tackles, looks for the Packers to take a strong, hard look at Pouncey. [...] Spring is in the air. The temps are warming. The bulky, winter clothes are dwindling. And sometimes true beauty that is covered all winter is finally revealed. Okay, okay, maybe I should leave my poetry session for another day, but the point I am getting at is that sometimes true gems take a little while to [...] Okay, so we’ve covered the tackles who are considered “first round talents.” But let’s be honest - anyone could have done that. For our second (and final) day of discussing offensive tackles, we’ll be focusing on two groups: second/third round talents and mid-to-late-round gems. First up are some players who could be had in the second or third [...] We believe right now there are five legit first round prospects that the Packers could be [...] Without further adieu, here is part one of our look at the top tackle prospects.
