2018 New Orleans Saints Preview: Where will Packers’ extra first-round draft pick fall?

The Green Bay Packers and their fans will be cheering for two teams each week during the 2018 NFL season: the green and gold, who will play their 100th season of professional football this year, and whatever team plays against the New Orleans Saints.

The Packers acquired the Saints’ first-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft this April, when general manager Brian Gutekunst traded back from the 14th pick to the 27th selection on the day of round one of the 2018 selection meeting. Therefore, the Packers will enter round one with two picks, something Ted Thompson never did.
