Packers fourth round (135th overall): Robert Hainsey, OL, Notre Dame

Packers’ critics are probably going crazy at this point and hammering home the point that the Packers never get Aaron Rodgers any help. Let’s try to quiet them a bit by grabbing two offensive players in the fourth round.

Robert Hainsey is a versatile offensive lineman, adding to the versatility the Packers already have at the position. He played tackle at Notre Dame but projects as more of an inside player at the next level. He’ll need some seasoning and good coaching–two things the Packers can offer him. In the end, he’ll have the opportunity to be another mid-round steal upfront.

Packers fourth round (142nd overall): Simi Fehoko, WR, Stanford

The Packers could use a true no. 2 wide receiver behind Davante Adams, but make up for that with solid depth at the position. However, that depth will basically disappear after this season considering their entire position group is free agents after 2021.

Simi Fehoko would begin to replace some of that depth. He’s a big boy at 6-foot-4 and can get to his top speed quickly. He’s also great at hauling in passes in tight coverage. He’ll need some time to improve his route-running, but can contribute on special teams immediately.
