With the 23rd pick in the NFL Draft, the Green Bay Packers selected WR Matthew Golden.
NFL Commissioner Rodger Goodell walked out with outgoing President and CEO Mark Murphy who praised the crowd in attendance, and thanked everyone for coming.
He then made the announcement in the shadow of Lambeau Field, the Packers selected a wide receiver for the first time since 2002, which made the Packer fans in attendance extremely happy.
Golden, a Texas Longhorn, caught 58 passes last season for 987 yards and 9 scores.
Many pundits and Packer fans have voiced their disappointment in the team not selecting a receiver for Aaron Rodgers, but this pick puts an end to that Wide Receiver drought.
