Packers get QB Love more playmakers in 2nd day of NFL draft

Associated Press  

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Jordan Love may have been the biggest winner on the second day of the Green Bay Packers’ draft The Packers got a few weapons for their new starting quarterback in the NFL draft on Friday night: They selected Oregon State tight end Luke Musgrave and Michigan State wide receiver Jayden Reed in the second round and South Dakota State tight end Tucker Kraft in the third round. We’ll see how it goes.” Green Bay chose Musgrave with the 42nd overall selection, a pick they acquired in the trade that sent four-time MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers to the New York Jets. This is all I ever wanted forever in my life.” The Packers capitalized on the depth of this year’s tight end class by drafting two players at that position for the first time since 2011. Although Green Bay drafted three wideouts last year – North Dakota State’s Christian Watson in the second, Nevada’s Romeo Doubs in the fourth and Nebraska’s Samori Toure in the seventh – the position still ranks as one of the Packers’ biggest needs.
