30. Green Bay Packers
Ezra Cleveland | OT | Boise State
Receiver is a need, but with quite a few coming off the board ahead of them, I think the Packers could switch gears and bank on getting better value on Day 2 thanks to this year’s deep class. There are other tackle prospects I’m higher on than Cleveland, but he’s a name that’s likely to come off the board in the first round, no matter what I think.
Cleveland is a tough competitor, and one who enjoyed stealing his opponents’ towels after a pancake block and hanging them in the locker room as trophies. That’s the kind of mentality that gets an offensive line coach to stand on the table for you in the (virtual) draft room.
With Bryan Bulaga gone via free agency, Cleveland gives Green Bay a solid replacement to make sure Aaron Rodgers stays upright for the foreseeable future.
