Will He Be There? Packers Round 1 Draft Crushes

I found some pretty cool data that aggregates a whole bunch of mock drafts (770 so far) done by fans, experts and media members. (Ben Robinson, who puts the data together to build an NFL Mock Draft Consensus Board, has done an awesome job with it, and all credit due to him.)

I wanted to play with this a little bit so I put together some code to aggregate how often various players will be there for the Packers to potentially select at the 12th and 30th overall picks in the draft. However, the dataset has 202 different players going in the first round from different drafts! Instead of just dumping all the results, I wanted to get a sense of who people wanted to see. I'll look at how the media, fans, and experts differ, too.

Players I'm planning to include:

T.J. Hockenson
Noah Fant
Dalton Risner
Jachai Polite
Brian Burns
A.J. Brown
Hollywood Brown
Devin Bush
Josh Allen
Montez Sweat
Ed Oliver
Rashan Gary
Devin White
among others

Who is your first round draft crush? Who shouldn't I miss? Let me know in the comments.
