One of the Packers’ two first-round picks has become the first 2022 first-round pick to agree to terms on an NFL contract.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt has agreed to his rookie deal with Green Bay. The 28th overall pick’s four-year deal is worth $12.86 million with a $6.533 million signing bonus and the Packers hold a fifth-year option on the deal.

Wyatt played 42 games at Georgia and had 113 tackles, 12 sacks, two forced fumbles, and two fumble recoveries during his time at the SEC school.

Wyatt was picked six picks after his college teammate Quay Walker became the first Packers selection of the round. Walker is one of 10 other picks the Packers still have to sign.

  1. He’s not getting much because there isn’t much. Hell be gone in 4 years or less, thats all the Packers want out of him and the others. Only the QB and a couple of others who protect the QB are kept, everyone else is let go to save the bucks.

    ………and win more games in the last three years than any other team in the NFL, while taking their division three times in a row, too.

    Best regular season team in the NFL for sure.

  4. Aaron demanded that they sign Devante, so this is the closest they were able to come.

  5. This guy is going to live in the Viking backfield two times a season.

    Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    You can’t swim if you aren’t in the pool.

  7. Given that rookie contracts are basically set based on draft position, without wiggle room or negotiation, I”m surprised more contracts aren’t signed this soon. Of course teams have to work out salary cap issues in some cases, so that can delay things, but otherwise there is no reason for players to delay signing.

    You cant pay the top QB and have the top paid WR in the league it make things tough, especially when you have guys like Alexander and Jenkins who could ask for top 5 $ in their positions coming up, you cant keep everyone.

  9. Laying the foundation on winning the next 3 Superbowls in a row! Suck it haters!

  10. I read some responses about winning the division 3 years in a row and talk of 13-3 seasons. Packers are a big fish in a small pond in a really non competitive division as of late. It’s no different than when the Vikes ruled in the 70s.6 years in a row from 73 to 78 they were division Champs. Not even Green Bay has done that but I digress.

    Packers are going to need guys like Wyatt because I don’t see this kid Watson coming in and being a Jefferson his first year. Watkins is not the answers because he gets injured. Cobb is in the back end of his career. Lazard, who knows? Has he even signed yet?

    Green Bays defense will be the key to their success this up coming season. Can’t have an explosive offense when your MVP QB has no one to chuck the rock to. There will be no 13-3 season this year and a strong possibility that Green Bay misses the playoffs or just get in by the skin of their teeth.

    Wyatt should be a dominate force I agree but it takes more than one guy to bring it all home. Packers fans should know this after depending on Rodgers each and every year only to fail in epic fashion. Rodgers better had deliver this year – after the Packers have put all their eggs in one basket. Adams is a huge loss and it’s time to stop rationalizing and face the facts this offense won’t be as grand as in years past.

    One brick at a time.

    You talking defense or Lazard’s hands😅😅😅

  12. Regarding the comment they only keep the ones that protect Rodgers here’s a list of notable offensive linemen they have let go the past few years. Corey Linsley (pro Bowler), Lucas Patrick, Bryan Bulaga, Lane Taylor and Billy Turner.

  13. Lazard is going to turn it up this year. He had one dropped pass in all 2021. One.
