GREEN BAY, Wis. – The punter from Alabama has a record-setting pole vaulter for a father. The long-snapper from Mississippi State was once asked by the one of the Bulldogs' star players why he was still in the program because he would never play.
They are JK Scott, a fifth-round pick and the first punter drafted by the Packers in 14 years; and Hunter Bradley, a seventh-rounder and the only long-snapper drafted this year.
And they are the most interesting men in the Packers' draft class.
If all goes as general manager Brian Gutekunst plans, they will make up two-thirds of the Packers' specialists this season along with veteran kicker Mason Crosby.
