2019 NFL Draft Do-Overs: NFC North
By Bryan Perez
The Green Bay Packers, Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings all had productive 2019 NFL draft results while the Chicago Bears used the picks left in their arsenal after the Khalil Mack and Anthony Miller trades to improve their roster the best they could. But which selection for each team requires a do-over?
The 2019 NFL draft offered a bunch of surprise picks and no team is immune from criticism. In this do-over series, we’ll take a look at each club’s performance and determine if there was a better prospect who either provided more value or filled a bigger need in a particular round.
We reviewed the NFC East’s do-overs here.
We won’t know how each draft class truly pans out until a few years from now. So this assessment is based on pre-draft scouting reports and what the team’s roster composition was at the time. Sure, if they made a few moves since the draft concluded, we’ll take that into consideration. But for the most part, rosters have remained pretty stable.
Remember: We’re only replacing the player who was picked with a player selected after him. It would be foolish to suggest a team should’ve taken someone who was already off the board at the time they selected, so we’re not factoring in trade-up scenarios.
It this installment of our ‘Draft Do-Overs’ series, we’ll touch on the NFC North.
