In fact, it became such a running joke that the team would only draft college left tackles that one could seemingly exclude any lineman who had not suited up there from consideration.That seems to have changed under new GM Brian Gutekunst, at least somewhat. The team’s lone offensive line draft pick a year ago, Cole Madison, was a right tackle at Washington State. Now as the team prepares for the 2019 NFL Draft, they are researching a right tackle from the in-state rival of Madison’s alma mater.That school is the University of Washington, and the player is Huskies tackle Kaleb McGary. The team reportedly has a top-30 visit set up with McGary, according to Aaron Wilson, which will be held in the coming days after the Huskies’ Pro Day on Monday.McGary is an impressive athlete who had an excellent workout in Indianapolis at the NFL Combine. There Jamaal Williams Jersey White , he ran a terrific 40-yard dash at 5.05 seconds and posted the second-best vertical jump of any offensive lineman in attendance at 33.5 inches. McGary also posted great agility times in the 3-cone drill (7.66 seconds) and the short shuttle (4.58 seconds), all while measuring in at 6-foot-7 1/8 and 317 pounds.A redshirt senior, McGary started every game in his final three years for the Huskies, while adding six starts as a redshirt freshman in 2015. Every one of those starts came at right tackle, however. As a senior, he earned the Pac-12’s Morris Trophy, which is given to the top offensive lineman in the conference as voted on by opposing teams’ players. He was also a first-team all-conference player in 2017 and 2018.McGray is currently projected as a second-day draft pick, which could put him squarely in the Packers’ consideration with pick 44 in round two or pick 75 in round three. If the team drafts him, that would immediately make him the favorite to take over for Bryan Bulaga in 2020, when his contract is due to expire Womens Mike Daniels Jersey , as well as a top backup option if Bulaga misses any time due to injury in 2019. GREEN BAY, Wis. — Running back Aaron Jones‘ breakout game led to a breakthrough performance in the red zone for the Green Bay Packers.In Sunday’s 31-12 victory over the Miami Dolphins, Jones rushed for a career-high 145 yards and two touchdowns. With Jones taking some of the pressure off quarterback Aaron Rodgers, the Packers scored four touchdowns in four possessions inside the Dolphins 20-yard line.More Packers coveragePhotos of the Week: 7/21/19 – 7/27/19Packers rookie Gary’s biggest critic is himselfTop Tweets: Former Badger TJ Watt has impressive four-year transformationPHOTOS: 2019 Green Bay Packers training campPackers’ Rodgers, LaFleur ironing out offense, building chemistryIt was Green Bay’s first perfect day with more than one red-zone possession since Week 4 of the 2017 season.“You saw it the other night,” Rodgers said on Tuesday. “Running the football in the red zone has not been a high priority for us, but the abilities that he brings slashing inside can give us some opportunities to run some more of those plays in the red zone.”Their next test comes on Thursday night on the road against the Seattle Seahawks.Situational football — red zone and third down — has been troublesome for Green Bay’s offense all season. Before the Miami game, the Packers ranked sixth in total offense (406.6 yards per game), but were only 14th in scoring (24.0 points per game) because of inconsistencies on third down (17th Womens Jake Ryan Jersey , 39.4 percent conversion rate) and the red zone (19th, 53.9 percent touchdowns).Against the Dolphins, they gained 377 yards but scored 31 points, thanks in large part to their success in the red zone.The threat of the running game gives the Packers (4-4-1) another option as they advance toward the goal line.While Jones scored on runs of 2 and 10 yards, Rodgers threw touchdown passes of 7 and 25 yards to receiver Davante Adams to punctuate the other two red zone possessions. Adams is tied for second in the NFL with nine touchdown receptions. Of those, a league-high eight have come in the red zone. Since the start of the 2016 season, Adams has a league-high 22 red zone touchdown receptions.The closer to the goal line, the less space there is to operate and the more difficult it becomes to throw. Adams’ edge comes from being one of the NFL’s premier route runners.“Because the window is so tight, and he can create enough separation to where he makes that window bigger,” Rodgers said.With the emergence of Jones Kenny Clark Jersey , the Packers have another weapon to use in their push for a playoff spot in the crowded NFC. Jones missed the first two games of the season with a suspension, then was part of a three-man committee in the backfield before taking over as the starter.In the three weeks since the bye, Jones has carried 41 times, Jamaal Williams has carried 14 times and Ty Montgomery was traded to the Ravens.“The more carries you get, I feel like the better you’re going to get and the more of a game flow you get in,” Jones said.Entering Thursday, Jones and Williams both have 73 carries. Jones, however, has rushed for 494 yards (compared to 270 for Williams) on a league-best 6.8-yard average. Jones had a 67-yard run in the first quarter against Miami, the team’s longest since receiver Randall Cobb had a 67-yard run in 2013.With Jones’ emergence to join Rodgers and Adams Reggie White Jersey White , the Packers hope they have the firepower for back-to-back road tests against Seattle and Minnesota.“It puts the defense in a bind,” Adams said. “It puts them to where they’ve got to load up that box and it allows us to have more opportunities outside. If they keep moving the ball like that and slashing and making big plays, it’s pretty tough to figure out what to defend.”NOTES: The Packers held what coach Mike McCarthy described as a “very limited” practice on Tuesday before departing for Seattle in the evening. WR Randall Cobb (hamstring), CB Kevin King (hamstring), S Kentrell Brice (ankle), OLB Nick Perry (knee) were not traveling with the team, though the Packers said their game status would be updated on the final injury report on Wednesday.
