NFL Draft: Best available players going into Day 2
The Green Bay Packers didn’t have a first-round pick on Thursday, as they spent what ended up being the 20th overall pick in the 2026 draft on their trade for edge rusher Micah Parsons, so you might not have been as locked into Day 1 of the draft as a usual year. If that sounds […]
Who would you have drafted if the Packers didn’t trade for Micah Parsons?
The Dallas Cowboys are currently on the clock with the 20th overall pick, so I wanted to ask you guys who you would have taken if the Green Bay Packers held their original first-round pick in the 2026 draft and didn’t send it to Dallas for pass-rusher Micah Parsons. Fire off your answer in the […]
2026 NFL Draft, Day 1 Schedule & Discussion
It’s finally here! The 2026 NFL Draft kicks off in Pittsburgh this evening, getting the biggest weekend of the NFL offseason underway. Tonight consists of round one, and 32 players will hear their names called to start their NFL careers. Impressively, seven of the 32 first-round picks have already changed hands prior to the start […]
NFL Draft: Jordan van den Berg (DT, Georgia Tech) scouting report
Every draft cycle has a surprise story — a player who slipped through the cracks, defied expectations, and made evaluators question what they missed. In 2026, that story belongs to Jordan van den Berg, a name most draft rooms weren’t tracking until very recently. A native of Johannesburg, South Africa, van den Berg’s path to […]
Tall Boyz, Part 3: Goin’ Deep
Please see Part 1 here, and Part 2 here. More on SiYAA here. If you’re being drafted in the sixth of seventh rounds (or not at all) there’s generally a good reason for that, but with the following three players, athleticism is NOT that reason. Two of the three have top 20 all-time RAS scores, […]
Green Bay Packers News: A Packers fan’s guide to round one of the NFL Draft
For the first time in my entire football-watching life (that part of my brain came online around 1992), the Packers enter the NFL Draft without a first-round pick. I’m not a Packers historian (paging Jon Meerdink), but I believe that the last time that happened was 1986. Sure, the Packers have sold off their first […]
Tall Boyz, Part 2: Early day-three wide receivers in the 2026 NFL Draft
So you didn’t get one of the early guys. Not to worry! Some of the remaining options might be even better! A few of them are even bigger and faster, like Bryce Lance, who posted the 23rd highest RAS of all time! Please check out part 1 here, and the SiYAA article, if you are […]
NFL Draft 2026: Leaning in at DT & CB in Packers 7-round mock
Wednesday of Draft week is here, which means it’s time for football analysts to submit their final mocks for the 2026 NFL Draft. This writer is back in the fray once again, as I have made my one and only formal mock for this season. I performed this exercise in both 2023 and 2025, and […]
Kyron Drones was Packers’ top-secret quarterback visitor
One of the oddest pieces of the Green Bay Packers’ run-up to the 2026 NFL Draft was a recent report by Bill Huber of Sports Illustrated that the team had held a Top-30 formal visit with an unknown, unnamed quarterback. What made the report especially odd is that Huber said he was “asked not to […]
NFL Draft 2026: Schedule, how to watch, & details for all three days
The 2026 NFL Draft is nearly here. Three days of excitement, hope, and probably a little bit of chaos await football fans this weekend as the annual marathon event begins on Thursday evening. The Green Bay Packers head into this year’s draft with eight selections, but without a first-round pick after trading it away to […]
Tall Boyz, Part 1: Day-two wide receivers in the 2026 NFL Draft
The Green Bay Packers’ wide receiver depth chart, as it currently exists on Ourlads.com, includes exactly two players who I would consider “big:” Christian Watson and barely-a-receiver Savion Williams. Last year’s first rounder, Matthew Golden, is 5-11 and 191 pounds. Jayden Reed is 5-11, 187 pounds. The newly acquired Skyy Moore is 5-10, 195. Former […]
Wednesday Cheese Curds: Packers prepared to address needs in 2026 NFL Draft
We all know the NFL Draft is a little bit silly. What takes three days could be done in a handful of hours if the league really wanted to. They shouldn’t; the spectacle is enjoyable. But we can at least acknowledge that it’s silly. And a good deal of that silliness is kayfabe — stagecraft […]
NFL Draft 2026: A Packers-specific Big Board
With fewer and fewer players completing testing, assembling an NFL Draft board is getting harder and harder to do with each passing year. One thing that is nice for the Green Bay Packers is that the non-testers are disproportionately weighted to the top of the draft where they won’t have a pick; in the area […]
Green Bay Packers Draft: Safety Discussion
In the final edition of our positional discussions, it’s time to turn our attention to safety. The Green Bay Packers don’t need a whole ton of help at the top of the depth chart at the position, but there’s still a chance for the team to add a safety via the draft. Let’s take a […]
Packers’ pre-draft visits point to cornerback and defensive line
With two days to go until the 2026 NFL Draft, we’ve got nearly a full slate of pre-draft visits on the board. Our pre-draft visit tracker shows 28 confirmed visits with a mysterious quarterback making up the 29th. The Green Bay Packers have certainly used all 30 of their visits, but we don’t always get […]
2026 NFL Draft Scouting Report — Christen Miller, DT, Georgia
If you want proof that context matters in NFL Draft evaluation, look no further than Christen Miller’s career arc at Georgia. He arrived in Athens as a four-star recruit and spent his first two years buried behind first-round picks Jordan Davis, Devonte Wyatt, and Jalen Carter — three players who all heard their names called […]
Tuesday Cheese Curds: Almost ready for the 2026 NFL Draft
We’re just about there, folks. In a little more than 48 hours, the 2026 NFL Draft will be off and running, though the Packers will have to wait a little bit longer to enjoy their first selection. If it helps, just watch some Micah Parsons highlights at the time when the Packers would be on […]
NFL Draft: Packers, Dolphins pre-draft visitors have a lot of crossover
The Green Bay Packers and Miami Dolphins are going to be tied together for the foreseeable future after the Dolphins hired head coach Jeff Hafley and general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan from Green Bay this offseason, on top of other additions from the Packers that included quarterback Malik Willis. With that in mind, I took the […]
Green Bay Packers Draft: Cornerback Discussion
As we’re winding down this series, we still have to hit arguably the most important position for the Green Bay Packers in the 2026 draft: cornerback. The position has hit several hitches over the years, in part due to players like Kevin King busting and injuries to promising players like Jaire Alexander and Eric Stokes. […]
Packers’ history at their current picks in the 2026 NFL Draft
In their more than 100 years of history, the Green Bay Packers have made a selection at nearly every possible slot in the NFL Draft. The franchise predates the event itself, of course, as the first NFL Draft took place in 1936, but that — and the fact that the Packers were one of only […]
Bo Melton signs free agent tender as Packers open offseason workouts
Monday is not just the first day of Draft week; it is also the first day of the offseason workout program for the Green Bay Packers, among other teams. As a result, players on the roster are back in the building for the first time since they cleared out their lockers at the end of […]
Green Bay Packers News: NFL Draft speculation enters the home stretch
It’s officially Draft Week! The 2026 NFL Draft starts in just three days, as Pittsburgh plays host to the event for the second time in its history and the first in more than 70 years. Whether you love or hate mock drafts, they’re finally about to come to an end, but not before a final […]
NFL Draft: Kaleb Proctor (DT, Southeastern Louisiana) scouting report
The 2026 NFL Draft has no shortage of interior defensive linemen, and Southeastern Louisiana defensive tackle Kaleb Proctor is one of the top small-school athletes. A four-year contributor with the Lions, Proctor blossomed in spectacular fashion during his senior campaign — piling up nine sacks, 13 tackles for loss, and Southland Conference Player of the […]
We meet again: The Packers vs. some familiar faces
After the trade of WR Dontayvion Wicks to the Philadelphia Eagles earlier this month (thoughts and prayers to me, the saddest girl), it looks like the Green Bay Packers might be done making major moves, with the exception of the 2026 NFL Draft this week. With the roster looking very different than it did last […]
Packers Draft Visit Tracker 2026: All the college prospects meeting with Green Bay
There’s no better hallmark of draft season than pre-draft visits. These meetings are a crucial part of the Packers’ pre-draft process, and it’s worthwhile to pay attention to who the Packers are bringing in for visits every year. There’s a good chance they’ll end up on the roster at some point. However, the way the […]
