GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Romeo Doubs and Samori Toure never thought they’d end up with the same NFL team. And when the Green Bay Packers drafted Doubs, the receiver from Nevada, in the fourth round, Toure had written off any possibility that he’d join his offseason training partner.
After all, the Packers had already picked another receiver, Christian Watson, in the second round at No. 34 overall.
“It wasn’t even really a thought because I felt like the chances of that are kind of low,” Toure said.
But general manager Brian Gutekunst wanted one more, and Toure became the last of the Packers’ four seventh-round picks.
