The Ones Who Visited the Pack

Each NFL team is allowed 30 pre-draft visitors to the team's facility, and an unlimited number of "local" visitors and private workouts. We thought it would be interesting to compile as much information on these visits as possible. We'll check after the draft to see what teams chose primarily off their visit list.

This is not intended to be a complete list.

* = Confirmed "local" visitor
** = Believed to be private workout only

Green Bay Packers

Terrence Austin, wide receiver, UCLA.
Danny Batten, defensive end, South Dakota State.
Duane Brooks, wide receiver, Stephen F. Austin.
Duke Calhoun, wide receiver, Memphis.
Jorrick Calvin, cornerback, Troy.
Jonathan Crompton, quarterback, Tennessee.
Alex Henderson, running back, Northern Arizona.
Mike Iupati, offensive guard, Idaho.
**Ryan Mathews, running back, Fresno State.
Nick McDonald, offensive lineman, Grand Valley State.
**Jerome Murphy, cornerback, South Florida.
**Matt Nichols, quarterback, Eastern Washington.
Antonio Robinson, wide receiver, Nicholls State.
Patrick Robinson, cornerback, Florida State.
O'Brien Schofield, defensive end, Wisconsin.
Mikell Simpson, running back, Virginia.
Vuna Tuihalamaka, linebacker, Arizona.

What it means? I don't know. For the Packers, most likely, very little. Nice to see the list, though. I wouldn't mind taking a look at Schofield, for instance.

Here is a breakdown of those that visited (almost all late round guys) and what they might bring to the Pack.

I'd LOVE to see Jon Crompton go to the Pack. I went to high school with him and was good friends with his sister. Would be sweet to know someone personally on the Packers, especially from good 'ole Western North Carolina!!

Although talent wise I'm not sure. The dude was hated on a ton at UT. He apparently got a ton of talent but who knows what will happen with it.

Wouldn't mind seeing the Pack get Schofield, Crompton and Matthews. Schofield because he's from UW and if he heals 100% could be a steal in the late rounds. Crompton has the required talent and didn't deserve all the hate I don't believe, just a gut feeling. Matthews would be a nice addition, I'm going by how he looked against Wisconsin. He showed good speed and toughness.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

I like the idea that only two OL are on the list. That means Ted Thompson is going to play the OL card often. 🙂

I will be seriously disappointed if the Packers don't pick Schofield in the middle rounds - he could be a damn fine complement to CMIII and he's a great kid. I think Mathews will be a real-deal RB in the league, but he's too similar to Grant, so I don't know if I'd like that pick.

It seems to me that Thompson works out more WRs than anyone in the league. I'd be curious to see hard numbers on that.

Zero2Cool (5h) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.

CanPackFan (8h) : Will there ever be a time when Rodgers' whacko views will not reflect on GB? He is the past, thank god.

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Jan 4th gonna be rough with that start time lol

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Packers schedule listed. Boom.

buckeyepackfan (15-May) : Let the leaks begin. Colts @ Packers week 2, Vikings @ Packers week 4

Zero2Cool (14-May) : WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to Bills

Zero2Cool (14-May) : Jets and Aaron Rodgers open up on Monday Night Football,

Zero2Cool (13-May) : $170 guaranteed. This might impact Jordan Love

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Lions are signing QB Jared Goff to a four-year, $212 million extension

Zero2Cool (13-May) : I know we moved on. That tidbit just makes me a touch happier.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : I really don't know lol. I don't see him getting blown up.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : -3 buwahhhahaaha

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
