Gutekunst Stays Put, Packers Ready for Day 2

0:00It's April 24th, I'm Cory with the story. This is NFL News Today, driven by AI and built for football fans. Packer's GM Brian Gutekunst made it clear he had no itch to trade up into Thursday night's first round. From their spot at Pick 52, the cost was way too high after 32 players flew off the board. He stuck to the plan and let the night play out. Gutekunst's former exec, John Eric Sullivan, now running things for the Miami Dolphins was the one making moves. Sullivan traded back from pick 11 to 27, but that didn't sway the packers to jump in. Gutekunst sounds chill about it all, not worried one bit. He figures they can snag a solid player right where they sit, and he's even open to trading back if it fits. Heading into Friday's second round, he predicts a wild start with the first 10 to 15 picks shaking things up. If someone they love slides close, they might move up, but he'd rather burn this year's picks than dip into next season stash. Their day two lineup kicks off at Pick 52, then 84, 120, 153, 160, 201, 236, and 2.

1:0955, plenty of ammo to keep building their roster strong.
