NFL Draft 2024: Packers Draft Picks List for Day 1

Green Bay Packers head into 2024 NFL Draft with 11 picks after trades and compensatory selections, eyeing potential impact players.

The Green Bay Packers are gearing up for the 2024 NFL Draft with a whopping 11 selections at their disposal. Through a series of trades and compensatory picks, the Packers have positioned themselves well for the upcoming draft.

Thanks to their 9-8 record in 2023 and a Wild Card playoff win that propelled them to the Divisional Playoffs, the Packers are slated to have the 25th or 26th pick in each round of the draft. In a tiebreaker scenario with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who had a similar record and playoff trajectory, the Packers secured the earlier pick in the first round, with the two teams alternating in subsequent rounds.

One of the Packers' original seven selections, a fifth-round pick at #160 overall, was traded to the Buffalo Bills last year in exchange for a third-round pick at #91 overall. Additionally, the trade of Aaron Rodgers to the New York Jets just over a year ago resulted in the Packers receiving the Jets' second-round pick at #41 overall, as Rodgers did not meet playtime requirements to elevate the pick to a first-rounder.

On top of their trades, the Packers also acquired three compensatory picks in rounds five, six, and seven, bringing their total number of picks to 11. With a well-rounded selection of picks, the Packers are in a strong position heading into the draft on Thursday.
