Muhammad Wilkerson is one of the newest members of the Green Bay Packers and he looks to be a key contributor on an already strong defensive line. But did the signing make the grade? Connor Orr of Sports Illustrated graded all the big moves in free agency and he really likes the Packers signing Wilkerson as he gave it an A-. Here's a look at what Orr had to say about the signing.

One of Muhammad Wilkerson’s goals in free agency was to get out of town—growing up a few minutes from the Jets’ facility was, eventually, burdensome. Green Bay seems to represent the best of all scenarios that he wanted in a franchise. An organization that will protect him, a defensive coordinator that knows how to best utilize him and a defensive line that will clear his way to the quarterback. The 28-year-old former first-round pick is a boom-or-bust signing. He seemed increasingly less interested or motivated after his only Pro Bowl appearance in 2015, but still possesses a sturdy frame and powerful, long arms that make him a menace for average tackles and interior linemen.

Wilkerson played for the Jets from 2011-2017. He has been named to the All-Pro team twice and to the Pro Bowl once in 2015. However, his last two seasons have not been stellar, recording 4.5 sacks in 2016 and 3.5 sacks last year. Packers current defensive coordinatorMike Pettine was Wilkerson's defensive coordinator for two seasons and he helped Wilkerson improve his game which led to him recording 10.5 sacks in 2013 12 sacks in 2015. In his career, Wilkerson recorded 498 tackles (324 solo), 44.5 sacks, two interceptions, 26 passes defended, 10 forced fumbles and a fumble recovery that he returned for a touchdown in 101 games. Wilkerson hopes he can do some damage with fellow defensive linemen Kenny Clark and 2017 Pro Bowler Mike Daniels.

The Packers were able to sign Wilkerson on a bargain. If the Jets kept Wilkerson for this season, he would have made close to $20 million. The Packers signed Wilkerson for one year and $5 million with $1.5 million guaranteed. He will also get a workout bonus of $300,000 and his roster bonus will be close to $1.5 million.

With Wilkerson being reunited with Pettine, it should help him get back to his Pro Bowl form he established in 2015. And with him lining alongside Clark and Daniels who combined for 9.5 sacks last season, Wilkerson should have more opportunities to make big plays in the backfield this season.
