Packers trade up to No. 26, draft Utah State QB Jordan Love

The Green Bay Packers traded up to No. 26 overall and drafted QB Jordan Love in the first round.

The Green Bay Packers traded up to No. 26 overall in the first round of the 2020 draft to select Utah State quarterback Jordan Love.

The Packers sent the 30th overall pick and the 136th overall pick to the Miami Dolphins to move up to No. 26 and take Love, the fourth quarterback selected in the first round.

Clearly, GM Brian Gutekunst liked Love as the eventual replacement for Aaron Rodgers, a future Hall of Famer who turned 36 years old in December.

Love threw 52 touchdown passes and 23 interceptions over the last two seasons.
