Last month, when the 2023 NFL new season was officially launched in Kansas City, Heidi Gardner of "Saturday Night Live" and Eric Stonestreet of "Modern Family," were the two well-known celebrities who are also ardent Chiefs supporters that kicked off the event.
Going forward, Green Bay has been selected as the city to host the 2025 NFL draft and now the question many are asking is who should represent the Packers during the three-day event.
There are many local and national superstars who support the Packers and are ideal for the big stage. Additionally, there is plenty of time to clear schedules because the NFL won't take over Titletown for another two years. Likewise, you can bet on nfl games online as the Kansas City Chiefs will open their title defense against the Detroit Lions at 8:20 p.m. ET on Thursday, Sept 7th.
With that being said, here are the players we hope Green Bay will select in the 2025 NFL draft.
Simone Biles
Simone Biles, despite being a new fan of the Packers, her presence would draw a global audience for the green and gold. Biles, a world champion and a seven-time (4 Gold · 1 Silver · 2 Bronze) Olympic medalist holder, recently made her first appearance at the Packers when her husband, Jonathan Owens signed with the Packers.
However, after two years in Green Bay, Biles will undoubtedly be an expert on all local matters. She can even invite some of her former Team USA teammates, who can spend the weekend as Packers fans.
Biles and Aly Raisman kicking off the first night of the NFL draft for the Packers would be a gold-medal move.
Harry Styles
Now that concerts have become a norm at NFL Draft, the Packers should kick off the 2025 NFL draft week in Green Bay with Harry Styles, one of the most famous artists who is also a Packers fan.
Styles, the British pop sensation who won the 2023 Grammy Award for Album of the Year, had recounted how he became a huge fan when he stayed with a friend living in Appleton around the time he began touring in Los Angeles.
He even has a tattoo of the Packers logo on his arm and acknowledged a Packer devotee at one of his concerts in St. Paul, Minnesota, enemy territory, a few years ago.
Frank Caliendo
Even the most devoted football aficionados require a break from the Xs and Os after hours of football commentary. Frank Caliendo, who grew up in Wisconsin, attended Waukesha South High School, and graduated from UW-Milwaukee, is currently the best comedian. He is an avid Packers devotee and is familiar with the NFL landscape. During the 2000s, he was a member of the "Fox NFL Sunday" team and ESPN's "Sunday NFL Countdown" panel. Prepare for numerous John Madden impressions.
Lil Wayne
Lil Wayne is another player the NFL and the Packers must acquire. Who else, after all, has composed two Packers-specific songs?
The rapper, who has appeared at multiple games over the years, published a Packers hype song for the first time in 2011 and updated it prior to a playoff game in 2021. He even mentioned a number of athletes in the song.
Charlie Berens
Did someone mention comedy? In recent years, Charlie Berens, a local comedian, has developed numerous connections with the Packers. When international admirers are in town, he would educate this audience on all aspects of Wisconsin's culture. And remember to state ope if you encounter someone in Titletown District's dense population. Charlie will explain if you are unsure of the meaning.
The likes of Joan Jett, LeRoy Butler, Braun Strowman, Mark Ruffalo, Willem Dafoe, Mike Holmgren, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Frank Sherby receive honourable mentions.
