The Press-Gazette reports the Green Bay Packers might find their running back of the future in next month’s NFL draft, but it doesn’t appear the team has ruled out signing a veteran to help fill the void left by RB Ahman Green. One option could be RB Kevan Barlow, who was cut by the New York Jets last month after one subpar season. Barlow’s agent, Doug Hendrickson, said Monday he had preliminary talks with the
Packers on Friday at the University of Michigan’s pro day workout. The odds are long Barlow will sign anywhere before the draft, instead waiting to see where the top rookies land. It’s unlikely any team will pay anything near the $3.25 million in 2007 or $4 million in 2008 he was due under his old contract. Hendrickson said Buffalo, Tennessee and Indianapolis also have inquired about Barlow, 28.
