The initial thinking was to take a Wide Receiver and Green Bay had been enamored with Terrace Marshall Jr from the start of the process. 'Another tall receiver and we are going to be very difficult to match up against' was the simple mantra. Although 'throwing high' to an option of lanky receivers is not a particularly subtle tactic it is none-the-less a real devil to defend against. No team in the NFL has a comparable number of tall Cornerbacks and the GM knew himself how difficult it was to recruit even one good wide out defender fitting this brief.
However, as time went on and the thought back to last season's eventual failing came sharper into focus then reality set in. "We are in need at Cornerback" was what the Head Coach kept repeating and in the end the GM agreed. The options were ranked pre-draft day and one man kept standing out in their evaluations. Although he not the tallest he is a 'real baller' and the fans in Green Bay love a player who gives everything and hits hard. Yes, #29 the Packers take Asante Samuel and the FO are absolutely delighted...
