Green Bay Packers select DT Montravius Adams in third round of 2017 NFL Draft

It’s another surprising pick from Ted Thompson, who again turns to defense. Despite the needs at edge rusher and running back, Thompson looks to bolster his defensive line.

He’s committed to fixing the problems on the defensive side of the ball, and it’ll be interesting to see the plan for Adams.

Here’s what NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein had to say about the Packers’ third pick:

“Adams disappointed the scouting community with a pedestrian junior season that lacked passion and production. This season, he played with greater consistency of effort and found his way into the backfield far more often.
