The NFL has announced dates for the offseason-workout program. Here are the #Packers' dates:
From this fantastic list of NFL reporters, I'd like to highlight @GaryMyersNY.
His résumé speaks for itself — NYT bestselling author, Inside the NFL, decades on the Cowboys, Giants, and national beats — and he has helped so many young reporters over the years. He's one of one.

Henry Pearson played tight end at App State but is listed as a fullback by the #Packers.
I thought they might think of him as a fullback considering his size (6-foot-2, 249 pounds) and how much better his physical tools project at the new position.
The #Packers' final pick in the 2023 NFL Draft is another good athlete. Grant DuBose hits several of the big metrics that Green Bay looks for in wideouts: over 200 pounds, sub-7 seconds in the three-cone, and the quick 10-yard split.
The #Packers finally take a safety in the 2023 NFL Draft. Not a huge defensive back, but he has a good overall athletic profile.
And the #Packers do take one of the prospects from their visit list: Central Michigan running back Lew Nichols III.

Late in the draft, all the remaining prospects have glaring flaws. With that in mind, the smart teams focus on players with great physical tools that can be developed by NFL coaching.
The #Packers took that approach with Kentucky CB Carrington Valentine.
