In fairness, it was hard to predict the high level of success from Watt, or if he was even on the Packers radar, or any team other than the Steelers.  But he was taken shortly after King, so he was high on the draft radar.  It doesn't help that he was in GB's backyard while playing in Madison.But selecting for need or BPA (or both) is up to the GM with input from the HC.  I think Gluten has done a very good job in the draft.  Some ups, some downs - even from year to year.  But mostly, his moves have been solid.Finally, with Rhyan signing a 3-year deal at C, I don't think the Packers will be drafting any Cs.  They need backups for the OL though, so who knows?</blockquote>
