Vince Biegel “incredibly blessed” to be drafted by Green Bay Packers

The Green Bay Packers passed on one Wisconsin Badgers outside linebacker during the first round of the NFL Draft on Thursday.

They didn’t on Saturday.

Wisconsin Rapids native and former Wisconsin captain Vince Biegel was selected by the Packers with the first pick of the fourth round on Saturday. That pick, 108th overall, actually came from the Cleveland Browns in a trade for Green Bay’s 29th pick in the first round.

Biegel’s name was not called on Friday night in either the second or third rounds of the draft.
