BREAKING: Packers Select TE Tucker Kraft with the 78th overall pick in the 3rd round

After selecting Luke Musgrave in the 2nd round, the Green Bay Packers doubled-down on Tight Ends. With the 78th overall pick in the 3rd round, the Packers selected Tucker Kraft from South Dakota State.

After the Packers traded down twice in the 2nd round, an upward trade was speculated. However, they stayed put in the third round saving those picks and still got their guy.

Analysis:

Tucker Kraft is a versatile tight end with the skills to be a receiving threat, and a good run-blocker. Does a great job in transitioning from catch to run and is always looking for those extra yards after the catch.
