It's March 30, this is NFL News Today, powered by AI tracking teams, players, and standings. Packers fans, keep your eyes on James Madison Safety, Jacob Thomas. He set for a pre-draft visit with Green Bay, and those invites usually boost the player's odds big time, whether through the draft, undrafted free, agency, or later on. Team typically rolls with five safeties, but they lost Zane Anderson to the dolphins this all season. Now, adding cornerback Benjamin St. Juiced, a special team star, means they might trim to just four. Xavier McKinney, Evan Williams, Javon Bullert, and Kaitan Ola Dapo, that opens a door for Thomas, ranked around the 3-70th prospect overall, and eyed as an undrafted guy. He could push Jonathan Baldwin, Jalen Simpson, or Mark Perry for a cheap roster spot if Green Bay wants depth. This stuck it out at James Madison, after the coaching change, turning into a three-year starter and two-year all-conference performer.

No transfer drama for him like some teammates. At pro-day, he tipped the scales at 215 pounds and blazed a 4.45 in the 40-yard dash, solid measurables that could catch Packer's scout attention as the draft nears.
