No, Wisconsin doesn’t exactly look like the image above today, but players are still coming back into town to start working for 2022.
Today, the question for 14 begins anew. The Green Bay Packers are welcoming players back into the team facilities today as the offseason workout program begins for the 2022 season.
It’s happening on an unusually chilly, snowy mid-April Monday, but it’s happening nonetheless. But as the team’s veteran players (most of them, anyway) return to Lambeau Field, the front office remains hard at work getting ready for the 2022 NFL Draft, which is just 11 days away.
The team’s draft board is surely set up, with just a bit of minor tweaking going on over the last week and a half. But for those of us on the outside, it’s still worth examining a few positions, categories of players, or other lists to familiarize ourselves with the names we should know ahead of April 28th. A few such pieces are in today’s curds, along with a look ahead to one of the Packers’ big fan events during draft week.
