One thing that has become clear about the Brian Gutekunst roster building philosophy is his appreciation for under the radar and inexpensive free agents at positions of need. This philosophy allows Gutekunst to feel more confident in selecting the best player available for the Green Bay Packers during the draft as there are no pressing…
Yes, welcome to Green Bay Sammy Watkins, we need you. Of course, to help replace the recently traded DaVante Adams (still in shock slightly) and Marquez Valdez-Scantling, now in Kansas City.
