The Packers have been known to select former Bulldogs in the draft. Over the years, they have selected defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt, defensive back Javon Bullard, linebacker Quay Walker and cornerback Eric Stokes, who is now with the Las Vegas Raiders. They also recently picked up wide receiver Mecole Hardman, center Trey Hill, tight end John Fitzpatrick and defensive tackle Nazir Stackhouse in free agency after the draft.
The Packers and the Philadelphia Eagles have the most players from the University of Georgia of any team in the NFL. The Eagles and Packers have eight former Georgia players on their roster after the draft. The Eagles are the latest team to win a Super Bowl and did so with a lot of help from former Georgia players.

Former NFL stars Vick, Jackson to battle in Philly as HBCU coaches
Former Philadelphia Eagles teammates Michael Vick and DeSean Jackson will square off as opposing coaches in 2025 -- and they'll do so at the home they used to share. Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference rivals Norfolk State and Delaware State will meet on Thursday, Oct. 30, at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. The Eagles announced the news Thursday featuring statements from Vick and Jackson, who are entering their first years as head coaches at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Vick is from the Norfolk, Va., area and took over Norfolk State in December. Jackson was hired by Delaware State soon after. It is the first head coaching position for both men, who played together for the Eagles from 2009-13. 'This is a tremendous opportunity for our student-athletes to play in a world-class venue on a world-class stage,' Vick said in a statement. 'Coach Jackson and I made so many unforgettable memories together at Lincoln Financial Field -- this stadium holds special meaning in my NFL career. I am thrilled to be a part of this historic moment and want to thank the Philadelphia Eagles, Norfolk State and Delaware State for their collaboration to make this happen.' 'I came to Delaware State University to start a new phase of my career with a unique institution that cares about its students and is helping to transform their futures. I know Coach Vick feels the same way at Norfolk,' Jackson said. 'A part of that transformation is opening our students and scholar athletes up to a whole new set of experiences at the highest level. For our teams to be playing in Philly, at the Linc, on the field Coach Vick and I called home for many years will be special for our players, our coaching staffs, our alumni and fans, and for HBCU culture around the country.' Vick spent five of his 13 NFL seasons with the Eagles and made 42 starts at quarterback for the team. He was a Pro Bowl selection in 2010 and overlapped all five years with Jackson, who was in the prime of his career and made the Pro Bowl in 2009, 2010 and 2013.
