Pick Analysis. Zaven Collins. 29. Scouting Report. LB. Tulsa. player. 49

I think the Packers trade this pick, but predicting them this late is a recipe for disaster. So I kept them here. That may be a mistake because I’ve changed this pick more times than the team’s passed on a first-round receiver.

In this scenario, the board could not have fallen worse for the Packers. At this point, I don’t feel good about any team’s pick. I can see Green Bay trading out of this pick for a team to jump Buffalo and take Travis Etienne (Miami? New York?). Consider that my pick here, I guess. But I said I wouldn’t project a trade at No. 29 because they’re all dart throws here.

I’m tempted to throw in an offensive lineman, too. I just don’t know who to slide in. I’m struggling to see the Packers stay at No. 29. I’m only putting Zaven Collins here because I think he’ll end up in the first round, I just don’t know where.

Alex Leatherwood may be the choice if he’s available. I’ve had Dillon Radunz as a first-rounder for a while. Listen Packers fans, don’t come at me for this selection. If I had to guess, I’d say they trade the pick. If you asked me again, I’d play roulette between the following guys.

Alternative picks: Elijah Moore, Rashod Bateman, Eric Stokes, Tyson Campbell, Liam Eichenberg, Dillon Radunz
