Again, the history lesson is why I like chiefs planet.

The last time GB took a WR in round 1 was in 2002 when they took Javon Walker. That's right, 20 years since the Packers took a WR early. You have to go back another 14 years to get to the next time they did it when they took Sterling Sharpe in 1988.
Don't count on it.
If you want to bet on Green Bay, bet on the offensive and defensive line in the first this year. They need RT, LG, and DE pretty badly.
EDIT: I'd actually be inclined to bet on them trading 22 and 59 to Baltimore for 14 to take Penning. Perrion Winfrey makes a ton of sense at 28 if Wyatt is off the board. At 53 they can swing for a WR per their usual course. I see this as the spot for Watson who kind of fits their tall, fast profile of late.
