6. Bruce Irvin, OLB, Oakland Raiders
The Raiders are selling just about anyone so why not Irvin? Irvin spent most of his career with the Seattle Seahawks and is a speedster/pass rushing specialist. Even though he doesn’t rack up huge numbers getting after the quarterback, he has gotten at least 5.5 sacks in each of the past four seasons.
That versatility would be beneficial to the Packers and he would give them another depth piece at outside linebacker. Even with Matthews and Perry not doing much, the guys behind them are doing even less. Kyler Fackrell and Reggie Gilbert have been basically non-existent and Irvin could at least improve upon their play.
The Raiders have gathered multiple first round picks through trades of Cooper and Khalil Mack. The price tag wouldn’t be nearly as high for Irvin, making it more likely the Packers could be interested.
