Pick Analysis. Rashod Bateman. 18. 49. Scouting Report. WR. Minnesota. player

The Packers disappointed pretty much everyone when they didn’t select a single wide receiver in the 2020 NFL Draft, but they can course correct in this very deep 2021 NFL Draft class.

Rashod Bateman may not have 4.3 speed, but he gets open regularly to all levels of the field with his smooth routes, length, and body control.

Bateman has a pro’s skill set and even if he doesn’t ‘wow’ with athleticism, he’s going to be productive from day one.

49. Michigan. Aidan Hutchinson. DL. 50. player. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis

A versatile down lineman for the Wolverines, Aidan Hutchinson has tremendous size and length and can provide a boost against the run and in the pass rush for the Packers. He finished the 2019 season with 10 tackles for loss and six passes batted down at the line.
