Inside linebacker was a top need for the Green Bay Packers going into the 2021 NFL Draft. However, as Packers fans, we know off-ball linebacker isn't a position Green Bay prioritizes on their draft board.
It comes to no surprise Brian Gutekunst and company waited until the sixth round to finally select a linebacker.
While early-round prospects would offer immediate starting potential at the position, Isaiah McDuffie brings depth and upside to an inside linebacker group full of young, but raw talent.
From blue-collar town, Buffalo, NY, McDuffie grew up with his dad coaching high school football.
