Over the next few days leading up to this year’s draft, Acme Packing Company will examine the Packers’ history at each current slot for 2019, as well as run down the names of recent picks around the league at the position.Since the draft began, the Packers have made four selections with the 12th overall pick in the draft. One of them was a true bust, but they found two other productive players who had decent careers with the team. However, one player stands out well above the rest, as Vince Lombardi found a player who was critical to his team’s success in the 1960s and who went on to become a well-deserved member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.Packers’ History at #121984: Alphonso Carreker, DEMost recently, in 1984, the Packers selected Carreker, a defensive end out of Florida State. He started for the Packers at left defensive end for five seasons, totaling 18.5 sacks in that time. His high-water mark came in 1985, when he recorded nine sacks. Carreker finished his career in Denver, playing 22 games over three seasons there. 1974: Barty Smith Josh Jones Color Rush Jersey , RBDrafted out of the University of Richmond, Smith was a versatile back who was adept as a receiver out of the backfield. In seven years with the Packers, he recorded 1,942 rushing yards (with 18 touchdowns) and 979 receiving yards with three more scores. He started 43 games for the Packers, primarily in 1977 and 1978 as the team’s fullback. Both of those seasons saw him rush for over 500 yards and add at least 250 yards through the air.1969: Rich Moore, DTA Villanova product, Moore played in and started 20 games for the Packers, including every game of his rookie season in 1969. However, he was out of the league after 1970, being described as a “disaster” by director of player personnel Pat Peppler. Apparently head coach Phil Bengston — Vince Lombardi’s replacement — insisted on drafting Moore over the objections of many of the Packers’ scouts because of his 6-foot-6, 280-pound build.1961: Herb Adderley, CB However, the Packers landed a future Hall of Famer in the 1961 NFL Draft. That year, they made Michigan State cornerback Herb Adderley the 12th selection. Although Adderley did not start at corner as a rookie, he did in his second year, earning the first of four first-team All-Pro honors. Adderley would end up winning six NFL titles — five with the Vince Lombardi-era Packers and one with the Dallas Cowboys in 1971.Interestingly, Adderley’s cousin’s grandson is Nasir Adderley https://www.thepackersfanshop.com/David-Bakhtiari-Jersey , a safety prospect in 2019 who could be a target for the Packers late in the first round.Recent History at #122018: Vita Vea, DT, Washington (Buccaneers)2017: Deshaun Watson, QB, Clemson (Texans)2016: Sheldon Rankins, DT, Louisville (Saints)2015: Danny Shelton, DT, Washington (Browns)2014: Odell Beckham, Jr., WR, LSU (Giants)2013: D.J. Hayden, CB, Houston (Raiders)2012: Fletcher Cox, DT, Mississippi State (Eagles)2011: Christian Ponder, QB Jason Spriggs Jersey , Florida State (Vikings) The Packers have come a long way from the “audible thing.”That was the disagreement between new coach and veteran quarterback that, while arguably overblown in the perception of the participants, became a thing because it became public. Fifteen weeks into the season, it’s definitely not a thing.“I have full trust in Aaron [Rodgers],” Packers coach and coach of the year candidate Matt LaFleur told PFT by phone after Sunday’s 21-13 win over the Bears. LaFleur made it clear that, despite the theoretical construction of his offense, Rodgers has a blank check to call whatever audible he chooses, whenever he wants.“He’s seen enough during his career,” LaFleur said. “I trust he’ll make the right call.”LaFleur pointed to Green Bay’s first touchdown of the game. Facing fourth and four from the Chicago 29, the coach had called a play that would have gotten the four yards, moved the chains, and extended the drive. Rodgers saw something that made him think a longer throw to receiver Davante Adams would work, so Rodgers switched to it — and it defintely worked.It has worked for most of the year for the Packers, with 11 victories and a close loss at home to the Eagles, an ugly three-phases, no-show at the Chargers, and a blowout loss to the 49ers being the only blemishes. A bye week is in their grasp Mike Daniels Color Rush Jersey , and the team that keeps finding ways to win just might find a way to win their last two games to nail down the No. 2 seed.LaFleur pointed out that the team’s success starts with turnovers. In nine of their 11 wins, they’ve won the turnover battle. He also credited offensive and defensive play in the red zone, and leadership from veterans on offense, defense, and special teams.The coach also gets some credit for being flexible in his approach, and for being quick to learn and adapt — especially in a season that has seen a new coach like Freddie Kitchens make almost every mistake imaginable.“I’m learning every day about our guys, myself, our staff,” LaFleur said. “There’s a lot more out there for us.”Indeed there is, like a week off, a home game in January, and then maybe a one-game showdown for a spot in the Super Bowl.
