A highly-touted pass rusher, Van Ness accumulated 19 tackles for loss and 13 sacks over the past two seasons. The Barrington, Illinois native’s family has a vacation home in Fontana, Wisconsin where he was watching the draft and got the call the Packers were taking him.

The Green Bay Packers stuck to their norm of drafting defense in the first round of the NFL Draft. With the 13th pick in the first round, the Packers drafted edge rusher/defensive lineman Lukas Van Ness out of Iowa. When Rashan Gary went down with a torn ACL last season, the Green Bay pass rush was almost non-existent. As Gary rehabs from his injury, Van Ness is a young player who can start contributing right away, provide depth, and is a great long-term fit for Green Bay. Of course, many fans were disappointed that Green Bay did not take Jaxon…

In fact, they have the worst odds of winning the NFC North of the four teams in the division. While the Packers are going into the season with many question marks, the Jets have high expectations from most analysts and fans. Indeed, they are a much better team with Rodgers under center. However, one Hall of Fame running back recently…

However, whether or not he will be available when the Packers are on the clock at pick 13 is up for debate. With all the holes that need to be filled on the roster, trading away an extra pick to move up may…

While this is a higher pick than they had before trading Aaron Rodgers to the New York Jets, there are some who believe they are not done trying to move up. Indeed, if they want to draft Jaxon Smith-Njigba, they may need to get into the top ten. I f they choose to go another route, such as offensive tackle or tight end, they may need to trade up to get a player that would be worth taking in the first round. That is why ESPN’s…

It has not been a great stretch of recent games for the Milwaukee Brewers. After losing Garrett Mitchell, their starting center fielder, the team lost two games to the Boston Red Sox and are currently losing a series to the lowly Detroit Tigers. The injury bug has certainly bit the Brewers hard. In addition to Mitchell, Brandon Woodruff and Aaron Ashby will be out for extended periods of time. Sal Frelick, one of their top prospects, is out for up to eight weeks with a thumb injury. Still, there is plenty to be excited about when it comes to this…

The Milwaukee Bucks and Giannis Antetokounmpo need to win three straight games against the Miami Heat in order to avoid one of the biggest embarrassments in NBA Playoff history. Giannis, of course, missed two complete games (and most of Game One) with a lower back contusion. He suffered the injury on a dangerous charge call that had many fans and analysts on social media calling for a rule change.

Even moving up two spots, though, may…

The Green Bay Packers moved up from the 15th overall pick in the first round of the NFL Draft to the 13th overall pick. Of course, this is the result of the Aaron Rodgers trade to the New York Jets that also netted Green Bay an extra second round pick in this year’s draft, as well as other draft compensation. Now that they have the 13th pick, there are some who believe that this will be the year that the Packers take a wide receiver in the first round, namely Ohio State’s Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
