Draft Wrap-Up: Thompson Sticks To Plan
The Packers made two trades to amass extra picks, turning nine selections into 11. They drafted the best player they could when it was their turn, filling in depth and competition in some need areas along the way. And they found some potential long-term starters at positions the coaching staff is building the team around. All in all, it was exactly the type of draft Packers fans have come to expect from Thompson in his three years as GM. - Story
