GREEN BAY – With their 11th and final pick of the draft, the Packers added an edge rusher to their roster.

Southeast Missouri State's Kendall Donnerson was Green Bay's last of three choices in the seventh round, at No. 248 overall, on Saturday.

Donnerson (6-2, 248) made a pre-draft visit to Green Bay after putting up some impressive pro-day testing numbers.

He started at outside linebacker the past two seasons, compiling 10 total sacks (four in 2016, six in 2017). He also had an interception, three pass breakups and three forced fumbles this past season, earning first-team All-Ohio Valley Conference honors.
