This was the most likely outcome

Spoff, welcome back from a solid two weeks of nothing but draft prospect analysis! Can you share your epiphany here or do you have to wait until feeding it to Gutey?

Ha. I didn’t read a single thing about a draft prospect until I returned to work yesterday. When I disconnect, I truly disconnect.

How is prying Brett Favre from Atlanta not automatically assumed to be the best trade in GB history?

Probably because it was Wes’s last day writing the column before I returned.

Regarding the best trades, you have to include trading for Favre. Then the picks we got after trading him away helped land Clay Matthews.

It was only one pick, but yes, it was packaged into the trade up for Matthews.

Did we get any draft choices or compensation for the players we lost during free agency?

The Packers got a seventh-round compensatory pick, so they will have two sevenths in this draft – though neither is their original pick in that round. That was traded to Tennessee for Malik Willis, but they got a seventh from Pittsburgh for Preston Smith plus the compensatory for losing Yosh Nijman.

What do you think of the Packers moving Elgton Jenkins to center?

It’s the move that makes the most sense with the signing of Aaron Banks, who clearly piqued Gutey’s interest in free agency. Once the Packers decided to move on from Myers, this was the most likely outcome, and it provides an experienced, savvy and versatile mentor for possibly the next center in the pipeline, Jacob Monk.

I’m apparently the last Insider to offer an opinion on the Tush Push so I submit mine for critique: The reasons for banning it seem pretextual. There is no data that it’s a safety issue so critics say “it might be in the future so we want to get ahead of it.” QB sneaks are legal and there’s no evidence that pushing a player makes that play more unsafe. As far as it being a “rugby” play so is running, tackling, and kicking the ball through the uprights. Football comes from rugby.

All true, but I liked best what LaFleur said about it from Florida on Tuesday: “It’s not really a football play.” That’s been my argument against it from the beginning, and it sounds like in tabling the issue until the owners’ meeting in May (nicely called by Wes), there will be further discussion about the old, broader…
