Green Bay Packers: RB a crucial need, but not the most important

The Green Bay Packers head into the 2017 NFL Draft with many needs – on both sides of the ball.

But what is the biggest need, the most crucial need for the team?

Yesterday, Rob Demovsky lobbied hard for the drafting of a running back.

Here is what Demovsky said in an ESPN story:

At this point, the Packers’ backfield looks exactly the same as it did when last season ended. Converted receiver Ty Montgomery is the No. 1 halfback and Christine Michael is his backup … So the more likely course of action is through the draft, but keep in mind the Packers haven’t picked a running back in the first round since 1990.
