Matthew Golden

Packers signed No. 23 overall pick WR Matthew Golden to a four-year contract.

The deal is worth a fully guaranteed $17.57 million over for four years, with a signing bonus of $9.42 million, per OverTheCap.com. The 21-year-old started his college career in Houston before transferring to Texas to the tune of 58 receptions for 987 yards and nine touchdowns last season. With Packers wide receiver Christian Watson recovering from a late-season torn ACL, Golden should open the year as Jordan Love’s primary deep threat, giving him a strong weekly ceiling out of the gate. The Packers had not drafted a wide receiver in the first round since taking Javon Walker in 2002.
