Meanwhile Dean Lowry Jersey , Spencer Ware is the only real notable player picked in this spot in recent years."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections The APC PodcastPackers Film RoomFantasy Football AdviceCDTShareTweetShareSharePackers Draft Pick History: Seven picks at #194 with little to show for itJay Biggerstaff-USA TODAY SportsThe Green Bay Packers hold ten draft picks in the 2019 NFL Draft, and for a team that has a storied, 100-year history, they have predictably made selections in the past at every one of these draft slots. Over the next few days leading up to this year’s draft, Acme Packing Company will examine the Packers’ history at each current slot for 2019, as well as run down the names of recent picks around the league at the position.The Packers’ second draft pick in the sixth round of the 2019 NFL Draft comes courtesy of the Seattle Seahawks. General manager Brian Gutekunst obtained the 194th overall pick in the draft last August, when he traded backup quarterback Brett Hundley to Seattle. If the Packers make their pick there, that will be the eighth time they have selected in that spot in team history. However, of the team’s seven picks, only one ever played in an NFL game.There’s not much in NFL history, either. The top player picked there in the NFL Draft by Approximate Value is receiver Leonard Thompson Kentrell Brice Jersey , the Lions’ pick in 1975. However, the Denver Broncos made linebacker Dave Edwards the 194th pick of the 1962 AFL Draft, and he went on to a great career. However, it was in the NFL, not the AFL, as he became a starter for the Dallas Cowboys for over a decade.Meanwhile, the most notable recent pick at 194 is Spencer Ware, who has built a nice career as a backup running back for a handful of NFL teams, most recently the Kansas City Chiefs.Here are the names in the Packers’ history and over the past eight years in the NFL.Packers’ History at #1941939: Willard Hofer, B1940: Vince Eichler, B1942: Henry Woronicz Geronimo Allison Jersey , E1949: Larry Cooney, B1961: Nelson Toburen, LB1969: Doug Gosnell, C1974: Monte Doris, LBToburen is the only player in this list to play in the NFL, suiting up for 24 games with one start over the 1961 and 62 seasons. He was part of NFL Championships in both of those campaigns, however.Recent History at #1942018: Russell Gage, WR, LSU (Falcons)2017: Vincent Taylor, DT, Oklahoma State (Dolphins)2016: Cory James Aaron Jones Jersey , LB, Colorado State (Raiders)2015: Nick O’Leary, TE, Florida State (Bills)2014: Keith Wenning, QB, Ball State (Ravens)2013: Spencer Ware, RB, LSU (Seahawks)2012: Marvin McNutt, WR, Iowa (Eagles)2011: Markell Carter, LB Lane Taylor Jersey , Central Arkansas (Patriots) Wide receiver Geronimo Allison appeared to be on his way to a breakout year four games into the 2018 season.He caught 19 passes for 289 yards and two touchdowns after catching 35 passes for 455 yards and two touchdowns over his first two professional seasons, which the wideout said left him feeling like he was “kind of skyrocketing and climbing.” Things would go the wrong way from there, however.Allison’s “groove” was halted by a concussion and he then missed another game with a hamstring injury before returning to action just in time to tear his adductor muscle in practice. That injury ended his season and sent him toward restricted free agency this offseason. Allison has not been tendered yet and hopes that the team is planning to bring him back to see if he can rediscover that groove in 2019.“I see it, like in different articles out there, so at times it crosses my mind,” Allison said, via the . “But for the most part I just try to stay in the moment and consistently understand that this is my home and I’m here. I’ve been doing well. I’m active in the community. My teammates love me. The organization loves me around here. So I’m happy here. It seems like they’re happy to have me here. I鈥檝e been productive since I鈥檝e been here, so I鈥檓 hoping to continue to be here.”The Packers picked three receivers in last year’s draft and Davante Adams is at the top of the group, but Randall Cobb‘s expected exit in free agency could make it likelier that the Packers will bring Allison back for another year in Green Bay.
