Packers assigned restricted free agent C Evan Dietrich-Smith an original-round tender.

The lowest tender costs just $1.32 million, but also means the Packers won't receive draft-pick compensation for the former undrafted free agent if he signs an offer sheet elsewhere and they decide not to match. Dietrich-Smith took over for future Hall-of-Famer Jeff Saturday down the stretch last season. He's made nine career starts.
