The Packers defense last year was a far cry from their defense of 2010 and it's likely they'll draft the best available front seven player at No. 28. The Packers employ a very aggressive 3-4 defense, which means they give up a ton of yards, but also get a ton of turnovers. Injuries to the linebacker crew was a concern this year, but this is an organization known for their depth. Brockers is a very versatile and athletic defensive end that can be moved around the line of scrimmage. The Packers would love to use him as the end in their scheme though, especially since the lack of Cullen Jenkins was really noticed last year. Brockers had 10 tackles for loss as a redshirt sophomore and also has plenty of potential and room to grow as a pass rusher.
