And with the 56th pick in the 2008 Arrowhead Pride Community Mock Draft, the Green Bay Packers select:
East Carolina RB Chris Johnson
c rag with the pick:
Green Bay was very fortunate in obtaining Ryan Grant last year for a future 6th round draft pick, however, he has not proven he could be the sole back for a full NFL season. With the recent trends of NFL clubs going with a 2 back system, I have chosen Chris Johnson from East Carolina. What obviously caught my eye was his 4.24 40 time, making him the fastest player in the draft. Chris would never be though of an every down back but would be great change of pace to Grant - i.e. Reggie Bush to NO's Deuce McAllister. Chris Johnson will be another weapon which in a very powerful GB offence.
