A roundup of the latest Green Bay Packers articles for Wednesday, Feb. 20.

Good morning and welcome to the Packers News Report. Starting yesterday, NFL teams are now able to use the franchise and transition tags ahead of free agency. Each team has until March 5 to decide whether to use the tag. It’s very unlikely the Green Bay Packers will use the franchise tag this offseason, but how other teams do will impact their decisions in free agency.

It’s not often that great players hit free agency, particularly at edge rusher, one of the team’s biggest needs this offseason. Which teams use the franchise tag will be something to follow in the next couple of weeks.

The wide receiver position is the biggest topic in today’s Packers News Report. In the report today: four reasons why Green Bay should trade for Antonio Brown, wide receivers to consider in the NFL Draft this April, and more.

Here’s a roundup of the latest articles from around the internet.
