X-factors on Packers: Luke Musgrave/Tucker Kraft

The Packers are revamping the tight end position this offseason, allowing veterans Robert Tonyan and Marcedes Lewis to hit free agency and drafting Luke Musgrave and Tucker Kraft on Day 2.

Musgrave and Kraft bring different skill sets to the table, allowing Matt LaFleur to get creative with his offensive playcalling. He can line them up in various spots across the formation, keeping defenses guessing about what’s coming.

This flexibility will be helpful for a young offense with a ton of unproven weapons. Musgrave and Kraft’s versatility will allow the offense to unleash some unseen techniques.
