0:00.0 | What is up Green Bay Packers fans? |
0:03.0 | And welcome to another episode of the Daily Draft, brought to you by Badger State Brewing in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and I am your host, the publisher of Packer Report, Ross Uglom. |
0:14.2 | Very excited to talk to you today about one of the most intriguing prospects in the entire NFL draft and a bonus pick for the Green Bay Packers, |
0:24.3 | which would be Florida State wide receiver slash tight end, question mark. |
0:30.1 | Johnny Wilson. |
0:31.1 | We talked about Kean Coleman already on the show. |
0:33.6 | Johnny Wilson, and what do I mean by bonus pick? |
0:36.1 | So bonus pick, look, there have been times in the past where Green Bay has definitely gone best player available and taken, for example, a great example would be Green Bay had a premium pick in the first round of the, I believe it was 2020 NFL draft, whichever one had Rashon Gary. |

1:23.5 | He didn't take care of needs in free agency. |
1:27.2 | The Packers go and spend the highest draft |
1:29.4 | pick they've maybe had during the entire Aaron Rogers era, which is number 12 overall on a |
1:33.8 | toolsy pass rusher after signing two big time pass rushers. So Green Bay has done stuff like this before. |
1:39.8 | They have, uh, you know, used bonus picks. They don't just go through their list of players and draft guys at positions of need only. |
