GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — The Green Bay Packers added to their offense in the second round of the NFL draft, taking Kentucky wide receiver Randall Cobb with the No. 64 overall pick.

The 5-foot-10, 192-pound Cobb could help the Packers’ pass-heavy offense and potentially shore up what has been an inconsistent return game. He began his college career as a quarterback.

The Packers went for an offensive tackle with their first-round pick, Mississippi State’s Derek Sherrod.
