Packers chose promise over productivity.
For what it’s worth, the current buzz around the league seems to be that Aaron Rodgers will return to the Packers for the 2022 season. If that turns out to be true, it would likely mean a third year of little or no production from 2020 first round draft pick Jordan Love.
One of the criticisms of the selection of Love with the 26th pick is that it did not address a current need. I don’t agree with that. Back-up quarterback was a need. At the time, Green Bay’s back-up was Tim Boyle.
