By Dan Parzych
5. Green Bay Packers
Throughout his career, Aaron Rodgers has always been the kind of quarterback who constantly makes the players around him better.

And while the Packers star certainly deserves a ton of credit for helping the team earn a trip to the NFC Championship last season, Green Bay’s loss to the San Francisco 49ers made it clear the offense needs help in the passing game.
Davante Adams is clearly one of the best wide receivers in the NFL, and benefits in a big way from having Rodgers being the one to get the football in his hands, but the help beyond the star wideout is a different story.
Unfortunately, the Packers learned the hard way last season that some of their younger receivers behind Adams may not be the answers they were looking for on offense, meaning Green Bay should address the need by finding help in the draft.
Whether it happens to be late in the first round or simply in the second, if the Packers are in position to select Shenault, they might be foolish to pass up on the opportunity.
Other receivers will certainly be available for Green Bay to consider in the draft, but with Shenault having the potential opportunity to play alongside a dominant receiver in Adams, this could work wonders for the Packers.
