A Scout's Take on the Round 1 Strategy of the Green Bay Packers

We are now just four days away from the beginning of the 2015 NFL draft. The Green Bay Packers will have pick No. 30 in the first round of the draft, which will be held on Thursday night. 

It would seem likely that the Packers would address either the cornerback or inside linebacker position with that selection.

Those positions happen to be the Packers' two primary needs.

But one never knows with general manager Ted Thompson.

"You factor everything in, but [drafting for need] doesn't carry as much weight as it might with other organizations, because they go about weighing those things differently than we do," Thompson said last week during his pre-draft press conference.
