Packers draft prospect to watch: Peter Skoronski, OT, Northwestern

Green Bay has several question marks at their offensive tackle position. David Bakhtiari talked about wanting to return next season, but can they afford him? Also, how long will his knee hold up? Yosh Nijman is a free agent. Zach Tom slotted in nicely at both tackle positions, but might be best as a guard.

Skornoski projects as a right tackle in the NFL and could start from Day 1. That would alleviate one of the question marks along the offensive line for the Packers. He only allowed six pressures in 474 pass-blocking snaps last season and is a proven commodity.
