And then there were two. The Green Bay Packers have signed second-round pick Jason Spriggs.
Spriggs’ deal leaves third-rounder Kyler Fackrell and first-rounder Kenny Clark as the lone members of the 2016 Packers’ draft class unsigned.

Spriggs is a left tackle and played his college ball at Indiana. The Packers were very high on him and showed it when they traded up in the second round to select him. In the process, they dumped a fourth and a seventh on Indianapolis.
That clearly signals that Spriggs, not David Bakhtiari, is the team’s left tackle of the future. Bakhtiari’s contract is up after this season and even if he is re-signed, his future may be elsewhere on the line.
