2015 Packers Draft Choices

2015 Packers Draft Choices
April 30 - May 2, 2015

Updated 05/01/2015

The greatest needs are: 1a. Cornerback - Both Tramon Williams & Davon House left in Free Agency - this suddenly becomes very important. 1b. Nose Tackle - BJ Raji & Letroy Guion are Free Agents & Guion was arrested in Feb for drug possesion. 1c. Inside Linebacker - The run defense has been sorely lacking (may go outside if Clay Matthews is retained inside). 4. Quarterback - No 2. QB Scott Tolzien was active only three times during all of the 2014 season. 5. Tight End - Richard Rodgers may be a fine TE, but there's no one replacing Jermichael Finley. 6. Running Back - Could use a good kickoff returner/3rd RB. Ted Thompson historically doesn't draft for need - he really does draft the "Best Available Player". (see Aaron Rodgers & Jordy Nelson - that turned out OK, eh?) The Packers received 2 sixth round Compensatory Selections, Nos 210 & 213 (Lost Evan Dietrich-Smith & James Jones). Yes, they signed Peppers & Guion, but they were both street free agents (they got cut from 2013 team).
