The Aaron Rodgers trade continues to provide value for the Green Bay Packers.
The Green Bay Packers are now doubling up on positions in the 2024 NFL Draft. First, it was linebacker, were the team spent second- and third-round picks on linebackers Edgerrin Cooper and Ty’Ron Hopper, respectively. Now, the team has added a second safety in the mix with their fourth-round pick.
Green Bay previously had spent their second second-round pick on Georgia safety Javon Bullard, who general manager Brian Gutekunst claimed would get his first look at safety — despite also having the versatility to play in the...

According to the former Alabama head coach, running back MarShawn Lloyd was the second-best back in the 2024 class.
One of the benefits of Bill Belichick and Nick Saban retiring is that they are both contributing to NFL draft broadcasts this season. Saban, the seven-time national champion, went out of his way to praise one of the Green Bay Packers’ selections on Friday, just one day after Belichick stated that Arizona offensive lineman was a clear-cut left tackle in the NFL.
When the Packers turned in their first third-round pick of the night for Southern California running back MarShawn Lloyd,...
Five players the Green Bay Packers brought in for pre-draft visits are still expected to go in the top 200 selections.
The Green Bay Packers are scheduled to make eight selections on Day 3 of the 2024 NFL Draft, with seven of those selections coming in the final three rounds of the event. At this point, you probably don’t know many names of prospects — unless you’re a true draftnik.
Thankfully, that’s where our friend Arif Hasan of Wide Left has come in handy. He’s compiled the best players available based on 96 draft boards, which we’ve made a table...
According to general manager Brian Gutekunst, the decision to trade back was made before DeJean’s selection.
The Green Bay Packers made four selections on Friday, which opened up plenty of conversations when general manager Brian Gutekunst and assistant director of college scouting Patrick Moore were made available to the media after the second day of the event. One of the more notable things said was by Gutekunst, who claimed that the team had worked out their trade back from the 41st pick to the 45th pick before the Philadelphia Eagles jumped up the draft to select defensive back Cooper DeJean...
The Senior Bowl MVP is a possible option for Green Bay on Day 3 of the draft.
When the Green Bay Packers were on the clock for their second third-round pick of Day 3, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport broke the news that the team had brought in South Carolina quarterback Spencer Rattler for a pre-draft visit — something that had previously gone unreported up to this point. According to Rapoport, Rattler visited seven teams during the offseason.
Based on Arif Hasan’s consensus draft board, which takes into account of 96 boards, Rattler is easily the highest-ranked quarterback still available at...
Green Bay doubled dipped at the linebacker position, adding both Ty’Ron Hopper and Edgerrin Cooper on Friday.
The Green Bay Packers turned heads on Friday when they drafted linebacker Ty’Ron Hopper out of Missouri with the 91st pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. The team had previously addressed the linebacker position on Day 2 of the draft with the selection of Texas A&M’s Edgerrin Cooper. Hopper was ranked 160th overall on the consensus draft board, equal to a fifth-round pick’s value. Green Bay must have felt the need to take him two rounds earlier with the selection that they acquired...
Washington may have been one of the teams that offered Green Bay a trade back opportunity.
Draft analyst Tony Pauline reported on Friday that the Washington Commanders attempted to trade back up into the first round of the draft with Arizona tackle Jordan Morgan — who the Green Bay Packers picked 25th overall — in mind. It appears that the NFL was very interested in Morgan, as Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones admitted yesterday that Morgan was on his shortlist of players that the team was considering drafting at the 24th overall pick.
Earlier this week, I reported that...
Here’s your live open thread for day two of the draft.
Day one of the 2024 NFL Draft did not go quite as Green Bay Packers fans expected — and not as many of them hoped. With Cooper DeJean and Graham Barton both still on the board when the Packers went on the clock with the 25th pick in round one, general manager Brian Gutekunst sent in a card for Arizona offensive tackle Jordan Morgan instead.
That pick came after the first 14 picks in the draft were used on offensive players, including six quarterbacks in the top 12. The...
Maybe it’s not too late for the Packers to nab Iowa defensive back Cooper DeJean?
While Day 1 of the draft is always exciting, Friday is going to be the day that will most impact the Green Bay Packers. Thanks to trades with the New York Jets and Buffalo Bills, general manager Brian Gutekunst owns a pair of second-round picks and a pair of third-round picks going into the second day of the event.
Once you went to sleep following the selection of Arizona tackle Jordan Morgan, draftniks frantically pieced together best available lists and Day 2 mock drafts. Let’s...
Keep track of each one of the Packers’ picks throughout all three days of the 2024 NFL Draft.
On Thursday night, the Green Bay Packers entered the 2024 NFL Draft holding 11 total draft picks. No team in the NFL had more picks coming into the draft, and only one other team matched Green Bay’s total.
Of those 11 selections, five were set to be within the top 100 picks, the cutoff at the end of the third round. Time will tell whether the Packers will make all 11 selections over the course of the weekend, as that number of...
General manager Brian Gutekunst might be able to land defensive back Cooper DeJean after all.
According to the NFL Network, there are a couple of teams trying to move up in the second round of the draft to snag some of the available talent before others get a chance: the Jacksonville Jaguars, Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers (h/t uStadium). For perspective, the Packers are set to pick 41st, the Jaguars pick 48th and the Eagles pick 50th with their first selection on Day 2 of the 2024 draft.
With only eight selections ahead of the Packers, you would figure...
