Packers' biggest draft snub is already drawing Travis Hunter-level hype

The Green Bay Packers needed a pass-rusher. More specifically, defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley needed a big addition who fits his system and could provide much-needed sacks.

If only one of the draft's top pass-rushers had played under Hafley at Boston College. Enter Donovan Ezeiruaku, a first-round talent who fell into the Dallas Cowboys' lap on Day 2. Ezeiruaku would've been a perfect fit in a Hafley system he already knows so well.

To make matters worse, he's now drawing Travis Hunter-level hype.

Brent Sobleski of Bleacher Report put together a list of rookies with the potential to have a more exciting rookie season than Hunter, the two-way star who could become an All-Pro on offense and defense for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
