Film Review: The 2019 Packers' Draft Class

Andy Herman does a deep dive into the entire 2019 NFL Draft class in today's film review.

For this years' draft film review I decided to go in a little bit of a different direction. I made a series of draft videos for each prospect in the class. Without further ado, here are the breakdowns. Enjoy!

Rashan Gary

Darnell Savage

Elgton Jenkins

Jace Sternberger

Kingsley Keke

Ka'Dar Hollman

Dexter Williams

Ty Summers

LOL. Implicit comparisons of anyone to Reggie White aren't allowed on packer blogs!

As we should miss all of our all time greats. Those players are once in a lifetime mostly. Favre and Rodgers is a truly rare exception. I still miss watching Collins and of course Woodson in more recent times. Those players could make something out of nothing. Just maybe I will be saying that about Clark in a decade or so.

Impresssed by what I see, but Darnell Savage really jumps off the page. ROY candidate. I’m calling a pick-6 off Trubisky in game one.

Great piece. Thank you very much.

The more I see of him, the more I think the Packers are right about Sternberger’s combine sprint time not reflecting his tape.

When the Packers had Jace in for a visit, he ran a 4.66 40. Rather better than the 4.75 he ran at the combine.

Also, because the guy is so smooth in and out of his cuts, he plays faster than he times. Lots of upside here.

While watching Andy's tape, I expected to see Savage move fast (and he did), but Gary, that was FAST.

Well done Andy! -- Fun to view. -- Sternberger may get more snaps than the other TEs put together. -- Take that RC....

He will be in the passing game and the kid from Duke may replace Tonyan
in the scheme. He was a reliable guy for Jones and a blocker.

I thought the pre draft hype was bad. It was to early for Gute's top 3. Not just Gary. There isn't anybody praising this pick. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder here.

Sorry, just don't see it. We shall find out in the real season not preseason if R. Gary is real and worth that #12 pick.

I see 2 to 3 people in on the tackle with R. Gary. I don't see any double teams, hopefully I. am blind.

Not watching the same clips as me. This kid could have a huge impact on our run defense as well as contributing to crushing the pocket without even talking about sacks.

' Highlight reels here...get reruns of Highlight reels...Highlight reels with audio...Highlight reels here...get them fast and watch the same Highlights over and over and over....Highlight reels here.'

The draft is over and now we have these players. How about we wait for the new videos of what they do and don't do now they're in GB, since they all need to be developed for NFL play.

But then we would have nothing to read or comment on.

You are of course correct though, if no fun.

It can be called the No Fair League as been shouted out after the Saints lost in the NFC title game last year.

But they are short of money to invest in the refs. Oh wait, they aren’t even after Goodall takes home the GNP of a small country.

That was an utter farce in a par with the Fail Mary, but without the excuse of amateur refs. Simply not good enough. Indeed the standard of officiating has got worse since the Fail Mary in my view, helped by some very poor leadership from the current Head of Officiating. Do something Rodger!

Watch Gary get himself a sack hat trick against Trubisky in game 1. The legend begins...

Seriously though, I admit I didn't like Gary much before the draft but hes growing on me. If you listen to his coaches talk about his role and responsibilities in their defense it paints a better picture of him and his production levels.

In real time I selected Christian Wilkins, who went 1 pick later to the Phins. Thought it would have been him or Sweat. Them getting Keke in round 5 kinda softens the blow a bit for missing out on Wilkins.

Love Savage the prospect, didn't love the cost to go up and get him but I'm almost certain Seattle would have picked him had they stayed put, maybe Baltimore at 23 or Oakland might have taken him over Abram who knows, we got him.

Like Elgton Jenkins, wanted Jace and feel good about Dexter in the 6th.

I think all our draft picks turn out to be all pro.

Or they all turn out to be money grabbing flops.

Or they report to camp and earn spots on the roster.

I will wait and see.
