Green Bay Packers get defensive on third day of NFL Draft
CHICAGO — The Packers got defensive again on the third day of the NFL draft.They bolstered depth for a front seven that has had some offseason turnover, and even added an inside linebacker with Clay Matthews headed back outside for more pass-rushing duties again.Matthews will probably like the selection Saturday of Stanford inside linebacker Blake Martinez with the 131st overall pick, a compensatory selection in the fourth round."Clay prefers to play outside," said Eliot Wolf, director of football operations with the Packers. "Anytime you can add someone to facilitate that, that's a good thing."Six picks later, Green Bay used another compensatory selection to take Dean Lowry, a 6-foot-6 defensive lineman from Northwestern.They'll join first-rounder Kenny Clark, a tackle from UCLA, and third-rounder Kyler Fackrell, an outside linebacker from Utah State, among general manager Ted Thompson's defensive selections.It's not necessarily how the Packers thought the draft would go."A lot of times that's just the way the board works out," Wolf said.Inside linebacker might have been their biggest need left going into Day 3 of the draft.
