Packers Draft Reactions: Green Bay adds depth with sixth-round picks

In the sixth round of the 2015 NFL Draft, the Green Bay Packers held three selections and bolstered the depth and special teams with each of them.

With the 206th selection, the Packers grabbed Oklahoma fullback Aaron Ripkowski, who had visited Green Bay earlier in the draft process. Though John Kuhn is signed for the 2015 season, this selection gives the Packers another fullback to compete with Kuhn. The Packers clearly like his blocking ability, but his hands were mentioned by GM Ted Thompson as something that impressed him at Oklahoma's Pro Day as well.
