What draft experts said about Packers top UDFA J. Michael Sturdivant
The Packers are reportedly signing WR J. Michael Sturdivant, one of the top UDFAs. Here's what draft experts said about the Florida WR.
The Green Bay Packers are expected to sign Florida receiver J. Michael Sturdivant as an undrafted free agent following the 2026 NFL draft. Sturdivant, who was rated as a sixth- or seventh-round player by most, ranks as one of the Packers' top signings after the draft.
Over four seasons and with three different schools, Sturdivant caught 150 passes for 2,073 yards and 16 touchdowns. He broke out as a freshman at Cal, leading all FBS freshman in receiving with 755 yards in 2022. But Sturdivant never reached those same heights after transferring to UCLA and Florida.
Over 12 starts in 2025, Sturdivant caught 27 passes for 406 yards and three scores in a disappointing Gators passing game. At the NFL Scouting Combine, Sturdivant aced the testing, posting a Relative Athletic Score of 9. 96 at 6-2 and 207 pounds.
He ran the 40-yard dash in 4. 40 seconds, hit 39" in the vertical leap and covered 10-11 in the broad jump, all elite numbers. First, check out Brennen Rupp's profile of Sturdivant in his "Unpacking Future Packers" series.
