Biggest Needs Heading Into Draft
After an uneventful free agency, the Packers will go into this week’s draft with the same holes on the roster that they had a couple of months ago – plus a new one in the middle of the offensive line after the Chargers made Corey Linsley the highest-paid center in the league. The following is […]
