This is the Pack a Day podcast.

What's going on, Packers fans? Happy Saturday, the final day of the draft. Welcome

into an all new episode of the Packaday podcast. I'm your host, Andy Herman. You can follow me on

Twitter at Andy Herman NFL and the podcast at Packaday Podcast. We have a ton to get into today.

There are those days in the NFL calendar where not much is going on and we're

scrounging for things to talk about. And then there's days where the Packers not only have

their first two picks in a draft, but also for some reason, decide to resign J.Reed Reed, not because

Jane Reed is a bad idea to resign, nothing like that, but just they had to choose today of all

days to also drop the Jane Reed news when we actually have a ton of things to talk about, I digress. It is a amazing day in the Packersphere. Jaden Reed does resign. And we do have our first two draft picks of the 2026 Packers draft. So we're going to break down all of that today. A couple of things. What today is going to be, what today's not going to be. Today I want to run through the Jaden Reed contract, why that's a big deal, what it means for everybody. I want to run through sort of some of the philosophy of why Brandon Cise at round two and then why Chris McClellan in round three. If you're looking for deep dives on these players, they are coming, I promise.

First of all, Ross Uglam and I already did an episode and broke down the two players

and our gut reactions to the actual players themselves.

You can check out that.

On the audio side as well, Matt Frailich, Eli Berkovitz, Rob Rieger, also have some breakdowns

on the actual draft picks themselves in a little bit greater detail. And remember, starting

probably Tuesday, Monday or Tuesday, probably Tuesday, will be the very first super deep dive

breakdown of Brandon Cise. And then Wednesday will be McClellan and we'll go every day from there on out

where I will get you everything that there is to know in the deepest dive you can possibly

imagine on all these prospects. I'm going to watch a crap ton of tape so that you don't have to.

I'm going to watch every snap that I can from their college careers and then just gather every bit of intel and information to give you all of that in all of those great deep dive. So those are coming out. It's not that I'm not going to go over the players today, but we're going to start with Jaden Reed, over some of the philosophy of the players, the players themselves a little bit. And then remaining, we're going to look ahead to Saturday as well, or today as you're listening to this, what Green Bay still is looking at, what picks they have, players that they could potentially take. We'll do a little bit of a preview for Saturday. Then we'll take a quick spin around the NFC North as well. But let's start with just a quick thank you, actually, first and foremost. We had, I think think it was like three thousand some people in the

the draft party that was unbelievable i'll be going live noon uh the draft starts 11 a m central time

i should be there probably right at noon central time uh today uh as you're listening to this so
