Round 2, Pick 62: A.J. Dillon, RB, Boston College

Redo Pick: Logan Wilson, LB, Wyoming (No. 65)

A.J. Dillon was a highly productive running back throughout his career at Boston College, a true workhorse in the Eagles’ offense and someone who should have some success in the NFL. He rushed for at least 1,100 yards in all three seasons in college, touching over 1,500 yards twice and amassed 38 rushing touchdowns over his college career as well.

Furthermore, Dillon showed he’s a freak athlete for a player with his huge frame as he lit up the NFL Combine. He’s an explosive player. But after Aaron Jones just finally enjoyed a breakout season, why the Packers would use a second-round pick on Dillon when other needs were so much more pressing is baffling to me.

If the Packers were doing it right, they would’ve waited to draft running back depth. And for me, the linebacker room still needs help. They signed Christian Kirksey, who is good when healthy but has struggled to stay that way recently. The same can be said for the other projected starter, Oren Burks, who has upside but hasn’t shown it just yet.

That’s why the pick should’ve been Logan Wilson. While he may not be the type of athlete other players in the class are, he’s a sure bet as a run defender with his physicality and ability to diagnose plays. With some nice fluidity to his game as well, I believe he can develop with reps in coverage at well, making him a big-time addition to this defense.
