The Green Bay Packers need some help in the run and pass blocking game this season. In this week’s mock draft, they draft Indiana offensive guard Dan Feeney.

Feeney blocked for NFL draft picks and fellow running backs Tevin Coleman and Jordan Howard while they attended Indiana. He has started every game since his arrival in 2012. He creates huge rushing lanes and takes up a lot space with his 6 foot 4 and 310-pound frame. He rarely allows quarterback pressure as well.

Offense ranks 26th in total yards per game with 331.8 and 25th in passing yards per game with 226.6. Drafting Feeney definitely upgrades things on these two fronts, giving quarterback Aarom Rodgers some room to throw.
