If you’re wondering whether the Green Bay Packers might actually draft a wide receiver this year, perhaps we now have a clue into their thinking.
A player to watch will be Western Michigan’s D’Wayne Eskridge.
According to Tony Pauline of Pro Football Network, the Packers are “high on” Eskridge and are among a few teams who “may target him early on Day 2”. Pauline noted that Eskridge is rising up draft boards, especially after impressing at the Senior Bowl.
Of course, it’s always important to take any draft rumors with a pinch of salt, but Pauline has been trustworthy reporter over the years with good insight into the Packers, so it’s certainly possible.
