During the NFL draft in 2024, Brian Gutekunst used the first round of Green Bay on the offensive liner Jordan Morgan. Then he followed this, using a pair of 3 types of day 3 in offensive liners.
With the starting center Josh Myers, who will hit the free agency and Rasheed Walker, Zach Tom and Sean Rhyan, who enter the contract years, Gutekunst could invest several assets in the offensive line during the NFL project in 2025 again.
Missouri’s is a potential goal Armand Membou. The Missouri offensive liner works at number 83 in unpacking the future counting packers.
Membou, a four -star recruit and from Missouri, ended his career as a tiger with 30 careers, starting with the right equipment.
“The best part of Membou’s game is its speed in many areas” Joey van ZummerenThe Missouri reporter said now for SI. “His leg work is liquid and fast lateral, which is particularly good for a crime that runs as many as a wide zone as Missouri. It always seems to be one mental step before the defender. “
Membou has athletic feet and everything remains in synchronization during its side slide. It has a unique lateral speed to close the corner. Missouri is malleable and plays with a good knee bend. He has a mighty core and can anchor before the rule. He has patient, powerful hands in his sets. According to Pro Football FocusMembou gave up zero bags and nine pressure last season.
“The speed, which he has mentally and with your feet, really helps membou in the protection of the pass,” said Van Zummeren. “Even if he loses the lever after the first contact, he is able to adapt quite well. His quick response time allows him to put his hand in a good time to slow down the Rushers. “
As a running blocker, Membou uses his mighty hands to latch and drive the defenders down. It shows good motor skills and is economical as a running blocker. Thanks to its athleticism, he can easily climb to the second level and more often than does not hit his landmarks.
“Of course, it is very rare for the offensive liner to stand out live in action,” said Van Zummeren. “But this season there were many pieces, especially in the last third, in which the influence of Membou was very noticeable in a running game. Run Missouri is very based on vision, and Membou seems to be perfectly understanding what he needs to remove. His strength of the upper body allows him to stick to the defenders in situations where other offensive liners must resort to hold. “
Adjust to the Packers
Membou checks many boxes for packages. He is a sports offensive liner who will turn 21 in March. While during his collegial career he only scored one career, he played there in high school and has makeup to kick inside.
You have to imagine that Packers will prioritize Tom on a long -term contract.
Will Gutekunst bring a similar priority in the scope of Walker and Rhyan’s second contract? Will Myers come back? Where will Elgton Jenkins be to start the upcoming season? Do Packers take him to the center to open a place for Morgan?
With all the sign of questions, you have to imagine that Gutekunst will want to add an offensive liner or two in the upcoming draft and give priority to players who can play in many positions. They must strengthen the interior depth, and also get another player who can play equipment.
“Membou feels like a tall, high perspective of the ceiling,” said Van Zummeren. “He is young, athletic, allows little pressure and is rarely punished. It is an exciting perspective because of its potential, but also has production to support it. The bands would know what they get in Membou, and at the same time have a strict perspective with the development of the place. Membou checks some Green Bay boxes with possible versatility, youth and what should be a high result of breeds. “
