For the Packers, Throw BAP out the Window With the 14th Pick

When Brian Gutenkunst enters his first NFL draft as the Green Bay Packers General Manager, he will be put to the test immediately with the team’s highest pick since 2009, where they selected impact player BJ Raji with the 9th overall pick.

Under Ted Thompson’s reign as GM, he was widely open about his best available player philosophy in working through his drafts. With that BAP philosophy came some draft selections that were complete head-scratchers when the team had glaring needs at specific positions. 2018 is not the year for a head-scratcher with the specific needs for an impact player that the Packers have.
