Packers roundup: Two 2020 seven-round mock drafts
A roundup of the latest Green Bay Packers articles for Tuesday, April 7.
Welcome to the Packers News Report.
The NFL announced on Monday that this month’s draft will be held virtually due to the coronavirus pandemic. This means GM Brian Gutekunst and his team will all need to work remotely and not at the team facility.
The NFL also announced its 2010s All-Decade Team. Aaron Rodgers made the team but former Packer Clay Matthews was snubbed. Do you think Matthews should’ve made the team?
A couple of mock drafts are featured in today’s Packers News Report, both going in different directions on Day 1.
