Green Bay Packers

Perfect draft pair: Washington CB Kevin King (Round 1, pick 29); Texas RB D'Onta Foreman (Round 2, pick 61)

Jeremiah on King: King is a big, physical corner. He's helped himself throughout the draft process. He answered questions about his speed at the NFL Scouting Combine, where he had a phenomenal field workout. I think he rose from mid-second round to the middle portion of the first round.

Brooks on Foreman: The Packers need a big back to replace Eddie Lacy. Foreman's running style is very similar Lacy's. He's a big, physical, rugged player. Foreman can be the power back with Ty Montgomery serving as his complement.

On the Move the Sticks podcast, former NFL scouts Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks break down the latest news and action around the league from a scout's perspective, alongside NFL player personnel executives.
