While serving as the host of the 2025 draft, the Packers selected eight rookies over the course of the three-day event. Green Bay has since added to its rookie class with the following UDFA signings:
- Johnathan Baldwin, CB (UNLV)
- Brant Banks, T (Rice)
- Kahzir Brown, S (FAU)
- Tyler Cooper, G (Minnesota)
- Tyron Herring, CB (Delaware)
- Amar Johnson, RB (South Dakota State)
- Jamon Johnson, LB (Kentucky)
- J.J. Lipe, G (Northern Illinois)
- Nazir Stackhouse, DT (Georgia)
- Jalen White, RB (Georgia Southern)
The Packers do not have a track record of making major commitments in term of base salaries for undrafted free agents. Baldwin represents an exception, however. ESPN’s Rob Demovsky reports he received $100K locked in for his base salary along with a $15K signing bonus. That is a strong indication he will receive a long look during the summer.
Brown measured 6-1 and 223 pounds at FAU’s Pro Day, during which he posted a 4.53 40-yard dash time. That combination of size and speed could help him land a roster spot in a special teams capacity. Brown posted a pair of interceptions, along with eight pass deflections and a forced fumble in 2024.
Stackhouse won a pair of championships with the Bulldogs during his five-year run with the team. With only three sacks to his name, he will look to carve out a role based on his play against the run. The 6-3, 320-pounder totaled 96 tackles (including nine for a loss) in college.
Also signed Julian Fleming WR (Penn State & Ohio State) but he failed his physical and they sent him home. Buyers remorse?
Not a Badger among the group. Trend continues
Who on this badgers team would you have wanted?
I’m a Badgers fan and Joe Huber is the only Wisconsin player possibly worth stashing on their practice squad. Otherwise, the Packers did a good job targeting areas lacking depth and players who might fill a specific need (i.e. Stackhouse to replace Slayton as the run stuffer).
No analysis here, but Stackhouse is just a perfect name for a DT.
Unless he balloons up to 365 lbs… in which case they will be calling him SNACKhouse 🙂
Damon Harrison may have a word with him on that…
