Gutekunst sent cornerback Damarious Randall, as well as the Packers’ fourth and fifth round picks, to the Cleveland Browns for quarterback DeShone Kizer, as well as the Browns’ fourth and fifth round picks.
It’s a move that makes sense on some levels, but is hard to rationalize on others.
On the one hand, Kizer is a great addition. Someone needed to replace Brett Hundley at backup quarterback this offseason, and Kizer will almost certainly be the man to do it. He’s extremely young (just turned 22 in January), has three years left on his rookie deal, and oozes with potential.
