10 players for Packers fans to monitor on the National roster during Senior Bowl week

It’s officially Senior Bowl week and the NFL world has converged on Mobile, Alabama. Since 2022, Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst has selected 18 players who competed at the Senior Bowl, including using eight of the 11 picks during the 2024 NFL Draft that were down in Mobile.

It’s a safe bet that Green Bay’s general manager will use a handful of picks in April on players he’ll get a close look at this week down in Mobile.

Let’s look at 10 players from the American roster that could be high on Green Bay’s board. If you missed it, here are four wide receivers from the National roster that could be high on Green Bay’s board.

Azareye’h Thomas, CB, Florida State

Thomas has all the tools that teams are looking for with his athleticism and size. He uses his length to choke passing windows and disrupt the catch point. The Seminole cornerback is physical and a willing participant in run support.

Jah Joyner, Edge, Minnesota

Joyner is a twitched-up pass rusher with an NFL-ready frame. With his length and first-step quickness, he has all the tools to develop into a force off the edge. During the last two seasons, Joyner recorded 12 sacks and 77 pressures.

Tommi Hill, CB, Nebraska

Hill is a physical cornerback. As a former wide receiver, he has plus ball skills and finished the past two seasons with five interceptions and 10 pass deflections. He has a high football IQ and shows good route instincts.

Darius Alexander, DT, Toledo

Alexander has a unique blend of power and quickness. He’s able to overwhelm offensive linemen with his brute strength and has the nimble feet to make plays up and down the line of scrimmage. Alexander finished this past season with 3.5 sacks and 37 pressures.

Darien Porter, CB, Iowa State

A converted wide receiver, Porter finished this past season with three interceptions. He’s a long cornerback with the ability to mirror and has the speed to stay attached vertically. A former track athlete, Porter has 970 special team snaps to his name and recorded 16 tackles, along with four blocked punts.

Landon Jackson, Edge, Arkansas

Jackson was built in the Brian Gutekunst edge rusher lab. He’s a power-packed edge rusher with an ideal frame. He’s a sledgehammer and finished this past season with 10 tackles for loss, 6.5 sacks and 35 pressures.

Cody Lindenberg, LB, Minnesota

Lindenberg is a highly instinctive linebacker, who processes things like he was programmed by Tony Stark. He moves well laterally to hold up in coverage and weave his way through the trash to attack downhill.

Joshua Farmer, DT, Florida State

Farmer owns a quick first step to get up field quickly and has the power to drive offensive linemen backward. Farmer finished this past season with eight tackles for loss, four sacks and 26 pressures.

Caleb Rogers, OL, Texas Tech

Rogers finished his collegiate career with 2,547 snaps at right tackle, 1,473 at left tackle, 186 at left guard and 115 at right guard. The Texas Tech offensive lineman is a good athlete with good range as a run blocker and offers a ton of versatility.

Bilhal Kone, CB, Western Michigan

Kone is a fluid athlete with the easy change of direction skills to mirror and match in coverage. He’s feisty at the catch point and recorded 17 pass deflections over the past two seasons. As the Packers look to add talent to the cornerback room, Kone could be a target early on Day 3 of the draft.
