The Packers have been one of the most successful franchises in the NFL over the past 30 years, with a long history of success on the field and in the NFL Draft. Like many teams, the Packers choose to focus on the ongoing challenge of building a winning roster primarily through the NFL draft. One of the main debates surrounding the Packers draft strategy is whether they should prioritize drafting premiere athletes or players who have had substantial college production.
There are advantages and disadvantages to both approaches. On one hand, prioritizing athletes based on their physical abilities can lead to selecting players who possess exceptional speed, strength, and agility.
