Green Bay Packers: 7 Round Mock Draft Simulation & Big Takeaways
By Paul Bretl
Round 1, Pick 30: Patrick Queen LB – LSU
Kyle Crabbs’ Analysis:
"“Patrick Queen projects well as a starting linebacker in the NFL — he’s got the sideline to sideline range to step into a MIKE role and has the impact in pass coverage to serve as a three down linebacker — a critical blend that should significantly help boost his value. Queen isn’t a thud linebacker and excels most when he’s afforded free range to scrape and flow, but his football IQ does allow him to beat blockers to the spot. He’s an impact starter and a viable plug and play rookie.”"
Big reason you see LSU LB Patrick Queen as the 16th overall player on @MoveTheSticks Big Board - his ability to cover

Instincts + burst are top notch! And a finisher once he arrives!
Queen sniffed out plenty of screens. Can even hang man-to-man on an angle route! #2020NFLDraft pic.twitter.com/DjsOUbwFdy
Round 2, Pick 62: Hunter Bryant TE – Washington
Kyle Crabbs’ Analysis:
"“Hunter Bryant should be a dynamic receiving threat at the NFL level. Bryant brings excellent quickness, run after catch skills and versatility to a flex tight end role. Plugging Bryant into a traditional inline role will water down his receiving skills — he’s best working off the LOS or as a flexed slot receiver who can serve as a H/W/S mismatch for opposing defenders. If Bryant it put in such a flex role, look for early production and long-term starter status in the pros.”"
#Washington TE Hunter Bryant (currently TE1 on my draft board) finished last night with 5 catches for 90 yards.

His stat line would have been even better if this TD wasn’t wiped out due to a penalty. Good example of his athletic skill-set though. pic.twitter.com/xDD6z5ioox
