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.

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

beast (4h) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (7h) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (8h) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Bowden long snapper Wisconsin. Consensus best LS in college.

dfosterf (28-Apr) : We got Peter Bowde

dfosterf (28-Apr) : I personally interpret that as a partial tear that can be recovered from with rehab

dfosterf (28-Apr) : MLF said Kingsley Enagbare did NOT tear his ACL and did NOT require surgery, and that he is "looking good" for the 2024 season!

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : Interesting draft. A bit shocked that we didn't select an early CB. Definitely have Safety help. Pretty happy overall.

dhazer (27-Apr) : wow the last 2 picks are really stupid and probably will be special teams players Top 10 draft pick next year book it

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score
