Jordan Love Rumors: Packers 'Motivated' to do Contract Extension, QB to Be Patient
The Green Bay Packers are "motivated" to get a contract extension done with quarterback Jordan Love, who is reportedly willing to be "patient" as other signal-callers around the league receive their own paydays and help reset the QB market. ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported that news on NFL Live (4:53 mark). "The sense is around the league is that Green Bay is motivated to do a deal, to do an extension with Jordan Love," Fowler said.

Expert Commentary
This is a very safe pick for the Packers. Morgan needs to develop some strength as he enters the NFL, but should have the footwork and skill to at least be a quality pass blocker. It just feels like there might have been more juice to squeeze here with some of the defensive players still on the board.

Expert Commentary
The Packers felt like they needed a linebacker and they got one in Cooper. He’s very fast and has some coverage ability, but his play in the box leaves some room for growth. Cooper might be a lower floor player as far as NFL responsibilities are concerned, but he has the speed to be a playmaker early on.

Expert Commentary
This is a great get for the Packers. Bullard might not be the most dynamic athlete in the draft, but the former Bulldog is a playmaker all over the field and has a chance to be a long-term starter in the NFL. Bullard and Xavier McKinney are a versatile pair of safeties to put on the field.

Expert Commentary
Lloyd is a stud. He’s had a bit of a fumbling problem, but he’s a bowling ball with balance and some real breakaway speed. If he’s able to hold onto the ball better he can be an impact running back in the NFL.

It's hard to get too upset about at a pick at this point in the draft, but Hopper feels like a longshot to be a contributor on defense for the Packers.
