Packers Have Had Success With NFL Draft Triple-Dipping

Brian Gutekunst tends to prefer to have as many throws at the dart board as possible. The Green Bay Packers' general manager not only likes to have an abundance of selections (no team has made more selections than Green Bay since 2022) but he has created a habit of drafting three players at a position of need.

Out of Gutekunst’s seven drafts as general manager, he’s selected three players at the same position in each year besides 2019. He did it again this year, selecting three safeties and three offensive linemen. Those moves came after allowing safeties Darnell Savage, Jonathan Owens and Rudy Ford and offensive linemen Jon Runyan Jr.
