This grade is based less on the quality of the players the Packers picked up than it is an indictment of the overall philosophy. Last season, Green Bay went 13-3 with a receiver group that had very little going for it beyond Davante Adams, and general manager Brian Gutekunst and head coach Matt LaFleur didn’t take a single receiver in what was one of the deepest drafts at that position in NFL history.
Picks:
Rd. 1 – Jordan Love, QB, Utah St. | Rd. 2 – A.J. Dillion, RB, Boston College | Rd. 3 – Josiah Deguara, TE, Cincinnati | Rd. 5 – Kamal Martin, LB, Minnesota | Rd. 6 – Jon Runyan, G, Michigan | Rd .6 – Jake Hanson, C, Oregon | Rd. 6 – Simon Stepaniak, OT, Indiana | Rd. 7 – Vernon Scott, S, TCU | Rd. 7 – Jonathan Garvin, DE, Miami (Vasha Hunt-USA TODAY Sports)
