Green Bay Packers 7-round mock draft: What would a BAP approach look like?

49. <p>Martinez is one of the more solid linebackers in this year’s draft. Stout against the run, Martinez makes plenty of plays between the tackles. He’s also a decent athlete and can hold his own in coverage.</p> <p>While he may not be a Pro-Bowl level talent at the next level, Martinez should contend for a starting role in the NFL as a rookie. He’s smart, instinctive, and tough. He’s a natural leader on the field and could compete with Jake Ryan and Sam Barrington for playing time at inside linebacker.</p> <p>Given I had the Packers select Correa already in the first round, Martinez gives Green Bay a true inside linebacker that could offer depth at the position or compete for a starting role if the experiment of moving Correa to the inside doesn’t work out.</p> <p>Drafting both Correa and Martinez gives the Packers plenty of options at both inside and outside linebacker going into next season.</p>. Inside Linebacker. Stanford. Blake Martinez. 132. player
