Three moves Packers need to make following 2021 NFL Draft
Wow. What a few days it’s been. We can all take a deep breath as the Green Bay Packers have put together their 2021 draft class despite the headlines being dominated by Aaron Rodgers’ future.
Fans weren’t too impressed with last year’s class overall, especially with the Packers trading up for a quarterback in the first round. The fact it’s still a huge topic to this day says it all.
