Green Bay Packers Front Office Show Interest In Adding 21-Year-Old Star To Offense…

The Green Bay Packers are suddenly squarely in the middle of the NFC playoff race.  After back to back wins against the Los Angeles Chargers and Detroit Lions, the Packers have improved to 5-6 on the year and are just one spot out of the final Wild Card spot in the NFC.  The Seattle Seahawks (6-5) and Minnesota Vikings (6-5) both sit in front of them.

The Packers committed to the future this past off-season by way of trade and deciding not to re-sign numerous free agents.  Those decisions made the Packers one of the youngest teams in the NFL.  Now, the Packers may be looking to add to that youth.

The Green Bay Packers sent midwest area scout Joe Hueber and director of college scouting Matt Malaspina to The Game on Saturday. Obviously, it’s not surprising that NFL teams would send scouts out to such a significant matchup, but ESPN’s Jordan Reid noted that only 13 squads sent out representation to Ohio State vs. Michigan, and only six — including the Packers — had multiple staffers in the box for the game.

If you want a rundown of the biggest prospects in the game, at least in the context of the 2024 draft class, here are the players who are ranked inside the top 100 on the consensus draft board:

While that would fit the Packers’ front office’s strategy for years, Harrison would make a hard choice if he is on the board. Granted, given that the Packers have started winning a more they’ll likley need to trade up to get Harrison.  Nonetheless, the Packers continue to trend in the direction of being interested in adding a star wide receiver.  Will they finally pull the trigger?
