Depth of draft class makes OT prime selection for Packers in first round

The Green Bay Packers could go a number of different directions with their first-round pick in this year’s draft. Receiver, edge rusher, tight end, offensive tackle, and cornerback are all in play. However, based on the strengths and weaknesses of this draft class, addressing offensive tackle right away might be the prudent move.

Darnell Wright, Paris Johnson and Broderick Jones are the top three tackles in this class, and anyone of them could be an option for the Packers at pick No. 13. However, beyond those three, the talent level at this position group drops off.
