Packers were planning pre-draft visits with several top QBs

The Green Bay Packers want to be prepared should the right quarterback fall into their laps in the 2020 draft.

According to Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the Packers were planning to host at least four of the draft’s top quarterbacks on pre-draft visits, including Alabama’s Tua Tagovailoa, Utah State’s Jordan Love, Washington’s Jacob Eason and Oklahoma’s Jalen Hurts.

Teams are only allowed 30 pre-draft visits per year. They can be important information-gathering opportunities as teams attempt to figure out a player’s mental makeup, locker room fit, football acumen and medical situation. However, all in-person pre-draft visits were canceled this year due to the on-going coronavirus pandemic, so teams are meeting with prospects virtually.
