No one is more excited to have Quay Walker and Devonte Wyatt as new members of the Green Bay Packers than defensive coordinator Joe Barry.
“I spring out of bed every single day and sprint to the office knowing they’re gonna be here,” Barry said Tuesday. “This time is invaluable to everybody but specifically young guys like Quay and D-Wyatt who are coming in as rookies and learning a brand-new way of language, a brand-new playbook.”
Barry spent a couple of days getting to know his two first-round picks following the draft but recently saw them in action during rookie minicamp May 6-7. Walker made a strong first impression, flashing his versatility as an off-ball linebacker. Meanwhile, Wyatt displayed impressive strength and speed despite no padded practices.
