Green Bay takes Iowa State receiver Jayden Higgins in the 2nd round of our 5.0 mock draft
A consensus is starting to build. For the second time in a row, fans here at Acme Packing Company have voted for the Green Bay Packers to take Ole Miss defensive tackle Walter Nolen in the first round and Iowa State receiver Jayden Higgins in the second round of a mock draft simulation. It’s hard to argue with the results, considering how much of a scheme fit Higgins would be in Green Bay at 6’4” and 214 pounds with a 4.47-second 40-yard dash. The Packers certainly need speed at receiver, and head coach Matt LaFleur typically likes to play bigger wideouts.
With that said, we’re onto the third round of voting in our 5.0 mock draft. We’re using the Pro Football Network mock draft simulator, so the availability of players will be based on their rankings.
Here’s how previous community mock drafts have played out:
Below are the top players available, according to PFN, with the Packers on the clock with their original third-round selection:
Three players who stick out here are South Carolina’s T.J. Sanders, Oregon’s Jordan Burch and Colorado State’s Tory Horton. All are graded as top-100 players according to PFN and were brought in on pre-draft visits for the Packers.
