Ted Thompson Should Lean Toward Defensive Line Early In Draft

Mike Neal. 

B.J. Raji. 

Letroy Guion. 

Julius Peppers.

Oh, and Mike Daniels. 

Heading into Thursday night's NFL draft, all of the gentlemen listed above are scheduled to be unrestricted free agents in 2016. 

What might that portend for this weekend? 

As McGinn points out, trying to get inside Ted's head to determine what he might do with his draft picks has become a fool's errand and one that is destined to make any prognosticator look a bit silly. 

While I won't venture down the foolhardy path of trying to determine who will be availble when the Packers are on the clock Thursday and Friday nights, let alone guess who they might select, I will offer up that the list above tends to make me think Ted will lean toward the defensive line with one if not more of his early picks.
