Bullard, a safety out of Georgia, said he was looking forward to working with new Packers safety Xavier McKinney; Bullard said he took a photo with McKinney when Bullard was on a college visit to Alabama.
"Words can't even describe the emotions I feel right now," Bullard told the media after his selection. "I'm blessed, man. I'm extremely blessed, and I can't wait to get to work."
Versatility will be the name of the game for Bullard, who wore a chain flashing the word "Bull" during his draft party.
"Really I believe versatility kind of sets me apart, but beside that, it's just want-to and passion for the game," he said. "I'm one of those players who's literally willing to do anything. I'm just a guy who loves the game and loves the environment."
