Packers signed No. 48 overall pick OT Jason Spriggs to a four-year, $5.004 million contract.
The deal contains a $1.839 million signing bonus and $2.966 million guaranteed. The Packers gave up a fourth- and seventh-round pick to move up nine spots in the second round to land Spriggs, but it is unlikely he is a factor right away. LT David Bakhtiari and RT Bryan Bulaga are locked into the starting lineup, and it is unlikely Spriggs will challenge LG Josh Sitton or RG T.J. Lang. Three of those four are scheduled to be free agents after this season, however, and it is unlikely Green Bay is able to keep all of Bakhtiari, Sitton, and Lang from hitting free agency. Spriggs might have to wait a year, but he could be the future at left tackle.
