The Green Bay Packers currently hold eight picks in the 2026 NFL Draft after a recent trade with the Philadelphia Eagles and being awarded a compensatory selection. The team does not have a first-round pick this year after sending it to the Dallas Cowboys in a trade for pass rusher Micah Parsons last August.

Why it matters

The Packers' draft selections will be crucial in shaping their roster and future outlook as they look to build on recent seasons and compete for a Super Bowl championship.

The details

In exchange for receiver Dontayvion Wicks, the Packers received Philadelphia's fifth-round pick (No. 153) and a conditional sixth-round selection in 2027. Green Bay was also awarded a compensatory seventh-round pick (No. 255) based on their net losses in free agency from the prior year.

  • The 2026 NFL Draft will take place next week.
  • The Packers traded Dontayvion Wicks to the Eagles over the weekend.
