Sean Clifford and Michael Pratt are going to have sore arms by the end of training camp.

All you need to know about the Packers' belief in Corey Ballentine is that they switched him from No. 35 to No. 26.

1. Interior defensive linemen don't age the way other positions do. Guys at those spots regularly play well into their 30s.

2. Kenny Clark is 28 and has missed one game over the previous three seasons. There are no sure things, but betting on him isn't a bad wager.

Add in the reported Christian Barmore extension (four years, $92 million, $41.8 million in guarantees), and we have a pretty good baseline for what a Kenny Clark extension would look like.

In case you're wondering if the Packers actually have a profile for late-round quarterbacks, newly drafted signal-caller Michael Pratt shares quite a bit in common with 2006 Green Bay pick Ingle Martin.

This was the first attempt at building a Packers late-round QB profile, and it correctly highlighted Michael Pratt. I'm very happy with the results.

This kind of work is what we offer at The Leap: Green Bay Packers newsletter. If you're not already a subscriber, I hope you'll consider joining us.

When Jason B. Hirschhorn and I talked QB options in the draft a month ago, I told him Michael Pratt was my favorite option in the draft and we both assumed it wouldn’t make sense based on where he was projected to go.

Was seen as a 3rd/4th

Packers GM Brian Gutekunst on trading up to start Day 3:

'The way our board was, we started to get thin for the fourth round. We had a couple players that we really, really liked. … I didn't think the odds were great (that prospects would last) so we decided to try to move up.'

Packers GM Brian Gutekunst on the cornerback room:

'Valentine played exceptionally well last year for us and Eric looks very good right now. We brought back Corey Ballentine. He played some really good football for us. I like our depth there. I feel pretty good about it.'

Packers GM Brian Gutekunst on how he evaluates offensive linemen:

'People talk a lot about the length on the outside that you have to have, which I think you do. At the same time, if you're a good enough athlete and can move your feet, you can overcome some of that.'

Packers GM Brian Gutekunst on exec Sam Seale:

'He's a rock. He's someone we all count on and lean on at times. He's the guy who has no problem telling you what he thinks. You may not want to hear it, and that's refreshing.'
