The best thing that a team can have in the NFL Draft, especially early on, is flexibility and not feeling as if they have to do something. Although the Green Bay Packers have a number of needs to address, which should include adding to a few positions multiple times, they do have flexibility at pick 15 because of where the strengths of this draft lie.
In terms of positions that the Packers have to address somewhat early on in the draft, those are wide receiver, tight end, and the interior defensive line. The only true fit for the Packers at receiver in the first round is Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who could be gone before pick 15. From a value standpoint, waiting until Day 2 to add to tight end may be the prudent move, given that most rookie tight ends don’t contribute significantly. There might also be just one interior defender available at 15 worth selecting in that range, but Calijah Kancey is undersized compared to what the Packers typically prefer at the position.
