This is probably one of the slowest weeks of the year for those of us who spend time covering the Green Bay Packers. There's no rookie camp or OTAs to cover, but the draft is over so we can't spend the week talking about scouting reports or free agency.
That's a big reason why today's curds are a giant mess of randomness, with some stories on rookie players and their possible fits in the Packers' systems, a look ahead to fantasy football, and some draft grades, among other things.
Enjoy the variety today, folks!
