Tucker Kraft: "I wanna play for this organization my entire career. I'm spoiled to have been drafted here and this is all I know. Green and gold is all I know, so we'd like to keep it that way and my agent and the Packers' front office, they're gonna be in those talks in time when it comes. You guys will find out eventually."
