The Packers will have plenty of new players to work into their new defensive scheme

Associated Press  

GREEN BAY, Wis. — The Green Bay Packers added plenty of new faces to a defense that has a new coordinator and a new scheme this year. Stokes played nine games in 2022 and three in 2023 due to injury, but LaFleur said Sunday the 2021 first-round pick is “full go.” General manager Brian Gutekunst said the ACL injury Enagbare suffered late last season might not have been the complete tear the Packers initially feared. He’s working hard right now.” Green Bay also selected Arizona offensive tackle Jordan Morgan in the first round, Southern California running back MarShawn Lloyd in the third, Duke offensive lineman Jacob Monk in the fifth, Georgia State offensive lineman Travis Glover in the sixth and Tulane quarterback Michael Pratt in the seventh. “Those guys play the right way, they love football, they’re competitive and they’ve won,” said Patrick Moore, the Packers’ assistant director of college scouting. “Just getting to go up there and having at least one guy that I know especially in that room, just having that opportunity to continue our friendship and be able to push each other, be able to lead each other, learn from each other, I just think is an awesome experience.” SECONDARY IN SEVENTH ROUND The Packers got major contributions from cornerback Carrington Valentine and safety Anthony Johnson Jr. last year after drafting both players in the seventh round.
