The 2020 NFL Draft has come and gone. The Green Bay Packers did not draft the way many expected. No wide receiver was selected, the team did not jump on an early-round inside linebacker, and while a trio of offensive linemen joined the class, all three were sixth-round picks.
The Packers chose to break the mold, as shooting stars are wont to do. The front office prioritized the players they needed for their vision for the team and honestly won’t care what the media thinks. For better or worse, this is the Packers’ draft class.
This draft allowed to the Packers to significantly upgrade the backup quarterback, running back, tight end, and, potentially, offensive line groups as well as add depth to inside linebacker, safety, and edge.
