The Green Bay Packers’ draft class is in the books with their big three picks being used on a cornerback, defensive tackle and pass rusher.

The draft is being used currently to offset some of the losses the Packers suffered this offseason. They had Romeo Doubs, Jordan Morgan, Quay Walker and Kingsley Enagbare among others leave in free agency.

The NFL draft is in the books, and the Green Bay Packers will now set their sights to getting their rookies acclimated while trying to get healthy for a chance to chase their 14th world championship.

Their draft class this year was different than any in the recent past, because they did not have a first-round pick — thanks to the trade for defensive end Micah Parsons.

Much is always expected from a team’s first-round draft pick. Such was the case in 2025 when the Green Bay Packers selected Matthew Golden in the 23rd overall spot.

But, has he materialized into what the fans — or the coaching staff — expected?

The NFL draft is come and gone, and the Green Bay Packers are hoping for a class that can help push them over the top of the NFC and into the Super Bowl. While they are looking for help from their rookies, usually a draft class takes a few years to fully develop, and it is previous draft classes that need to have players develop into stars.
