Packers 2016 Draft: Fixing the need at offensive tackle

If Don Barclay had pulled off his Packers jersey and revealed himself as a Vikings player pro wrestling-style last season, it wouldn’t have surprised me. That’s how much danger Barclay put Aaron Rodgers under when called upon.

Maybe it’s a little unfair to pin all of the offensive line’s struggles onto Barclay alone. Outside of JC Tretter, the depth behind the starting quintet wasn’t pleasing on the eye. Upgrades are required this offseason, and with nine draft picks there’s a great opportunity to stock up on linemen in Chicago this month.
