Only three quarterbacks were drafted in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft, meaning the under hit on that proposition. If you were banking on seeing someone like Davis Webb or show up in the first round, it didn't happen. That doesn't mean those guys won't come off the board early in the second round, though, and it's po sible Kizer could Melky Cabrera Jersey be a stunning early pick.Dane Brugler has Kizer , but according to Ian Rapoport of Network, Kizer is "in play" even earlier, to the at the top of the second round.Packers GM with the , picking up No. 33 (the first pick in the second round) and No. 108 in exchange for No. 29 (the Browns would take tight end David Njoku out of Miami, ).That top spot in the second round has major leverage, with teams resetting their draft boards after a night of action and a se sing the competition and then perhaps considering a trade up to the top of the second round. The Packers, according to Thompson, are very much open for busine s."Oh yeah, Alex Colome Jersey you can put that down," . "That will save us a couple of phone calls. We're taking calls."Thompson also said he likes the idea of owning the top pick because it gives the Packers a good opportunity to control their own destiny in a way ("highlight a player that we know we can get, and they can't take him away from us")."I think it's very good, strategy-wise," Thompson said. "We know where we're at and what we're going to do." But back to Kizer, because it would be a hotly contested pick if the Packers selected Kizer with the top pick of the second round. They have on the roster and Rodgers, as some might know, is a pretty good quarterback. He is 33 Preston Tucker Jersey years old, but that's not elderly in 2017 when it comes to quarterbacks.On the other hand, it's not guaranteed that the Rodgers will play until he's 40 like Brett Favre did. On a third hand (just play along), they already have , who've they've been drafting and developing since they took him in the fifth round in 2015.But if you want to play devil's advocate, the Packers only have control over Brandon Guyer Jersey Hundley for the next two years. It's totally po sible he ends up leaving before Rodgers is ready. Kizer would give them a run up to Rodgers age 37 season. You can't po sibly be prepared enough for life after your franchise quarterback, if the Packers weren't already proof of that. And of course it could all be a giant smokescreen. Thompson basically admits as much if he says they're open for busine s. If you were Thompson/Green Bay and you wanted to trade down some more and acquire more picks, drumming up interest in a guy like Kizer would be a smart move.It's just further proof that already having a good quarterback is a very nice thing in the NFL, especially when you're sitting at a leverage point Jose Abreu Jersey like the top of the second round and No. 33 overall.The first round was pretty wild and it might not slow down for the next 24 hours.
