Expert are TRASHING the Green Bay Packers' Draft so far

The run on wide receivers earlier in the draft likely affected the Green Bay Packers' approach with the 22nd overall selection. Or, the Packers see the depth of the position class and know a quality receiving threat can be found later.

Instead, general manager Brian Gutekunst turned his attention to the defensive side of the ball and found a running mate for the re-signed De'Vondre Campbell. Quay will team with the All-Pro and give the Packers two off-ball linebackers who can cover plenty of ground.

Walker played in a similar system at Georgia, which will help with his insertion into the Packers lineup. However, the Packers had their choice of linebackers. Walker is physically talented with significant growth potential. But he was far from the best linebacker in this class. He wasn't even the best linebacker on the Bulldogs' defense.

The Green Bay Packers did it again. They passed on a wide receiver in the first round. It was bad enough the last two years when the offense desperately needed to provide Davante Adams and Aaron Rodgers with some help. Now, Adams is no longer with the team, and general manager Brian Gutekunst still doesn't feel pressured to address the position.

To be fair, the top six wide receivers are already off the board, and a team shouldn't force a pick if it's clearly a reach. So the Packers receive a slight reprieve for now.

Besides, Wyatt is a solid addition with extensive experience playing in a three-man front. Clearly, the Packers chose to prioritize the middle of the defense after already selecting another former Bulldog in Quay Walker.

This particular selection also has an eye toward the future since Jarran Reed is operating under a one-year deal and Dean Lowry is a free agent after this season. A wide receiver can still be had later.
