Packers secure Malachi Dupre with 247th pick
The Green Bay Packers selected LSU wide receiver Malachi Dupre with the 247th overall pick in the 2017 NFL draft.
What It Means:
Dupre spent three years in Baton Rouge before turning pro, starting the final two. A top-two wideout recruit out of high school, Dupre’s college stats were torpedoed by horrific quarterback play in LSU’s run-first offense. Dupre is a lanky 6'3" and 196 pound project with 4.52 speed, and he struggled with press-man coverage and contested catches.
Dupre finished with 1,609 receiving yards on 98 catches (16.4 yards per reception) and 14 touchdowns.
