0:00On April 22nd, Packer Spans, you know that Mystery Quarterback they hosted for a top 30 formal visit before the draft. Bill Huber from Sports Illustrated finally dropped a name, Kyron Drones from Virginia Tech. Turns out, he's no blue chip prospect, he's more likely headed for an undrafted free agent deal than hearing his name called this weekend. Earlier this week, Huber got the green light to reveal it and Drones fits right into what Green Bay loves behind Jordan Love. This guy is a freak athlete at 6 foot 1 and 5 8 inches, 226 pounds, with a 9.58 relative athletic score. He blazed the 4.6 240 yard dash and hit a 10 foot broad jump at Pro Day. Drones balled out as Virginia Tech starter for three years, carrying the rock over 10 times a game for more than 50 rushing yards on average. Career totals? 1,847 yards on 442 carries with 22 touchdowns. And get this, their line was trash, ranking 99th in college football by letting up 29 sacks last year.

1:05But passing wise, he needs polish under 60% completions, career wise, and he was the most pressure quarterback in the country, per PFF. That's why he's sitting at 424th overall on big boards, 27th among quarterbacks. Packers see him as a project guy, maybe kept his visit quiet to snag him without a bidding war. Keep your eyes peeled Saturday night when those undrafted signings hit. Drones could be suiting up in green and gold real soon, adding that dual threat. Spark to the depth chart. That wraps NFL news today, brought to you with AI. I'm Cory with the story.
