Favorite Pick: Kevin King GB Definitely needed an upgrade at CB.

Most Impactful Pick in 2017: Josh Jones He will get in to the game a lot of different ways.

Sleeper: Malachi Dupre In a couple of years he might be a solid option.

Grade: C+ It is difficult to get real excited about the bottom half of the draft. A lot of long odds to make a significant impact. Adams, Biegel and Williams will be situational, rotation guys not players who will dominate.

The only 2 players that will be major contributors to the team on a consistent basis will be King and JJones.

My curiosity ask's the question, How many of GB's 2017 Draft picks were among those that visited the Team prior to the Draft ? and who are they ?

Thanks Coltonja


GB picked 3 players in the 2017 NFL Draft that visited the team prior to the draft.

DeAngelo Yancey / WR / Purdue
Kofi Amichia / OL / South Florida
Devante Mays / RB / Utah State

Invite twice as many to visit prior to the 2018 NFL Draft . [twocents]

Any team is allowed a total of 30 visits.
The Packers maxed out their invites.

As the column says these invites are usually used on guys who are on the fringe of getting drafted.
Ted and Co. Want to get to know these players a little better.
Mixon was invited, obvious reason there.
Other than him most are late round or udfa's.

Plenty of information on the top 150-200.
I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Thank you for that information Buck , I did not obviously know that before . Seems like a small number to me . I may just procure the invite list and compare it with the entire 2017 Draft. might prove to be most interesting . šŸ˜

I'm excited to see all the guys. I love the time where we have training camp, family night, and pre-season. I love talent evaluation and the competition. It's a joy to behold for me every year.
Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance

Mucky Tundra (5h) : @AaronNagler Ā· 2m Both Jordan Love and Malik Willis were Limited participants at Packers practice today.
Zero2Cool (8h) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. šŸ¤· Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.
Zero2Cool (8h) : HUMP DAY
beast (8h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast
beast (8h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?
Zero2Cool (8h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.
Zero2Cool (8h) : I could be wrong there though
Zero2Cool (8h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait
Zero2Cool (8h) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later
beast (8h) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL
Zero2Cool (8h) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?
Zero2Cool (9h) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

Zero2Cool (10h) : Jones took his sweet ole time!
Zero2Cool (10h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there
Zero2Cool (10h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it
beast (11h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.
beast (11h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty
Mucky Tundra (22h) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty
beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol
beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.
beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.
beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats beast on 2024 !

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : That might be it for the Vikings
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact
Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.
