Below are the results of eight Day 2 mock draft (yes, this is a thing) for Green Bay\u2019s selections.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Personally, I don\u2019t get why the Packers are being mocked an off-ball linebacker (maybe people don\u2019t realize the team switched to a 3-4 defense this offseason). Our own Tex Western did a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acmepackingcompany.com\/green-bay-packers-draft\/81943\/nfl-draft-2026-tiering-the-best-available-players-for-the-packers-at-52\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">good breakdown on the possibilities at #52<\/a> and tiering how excited we should be for each prospect. I\u2019m higher on R Mason Thomas than him, but the rest is pretty much how I see it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">For what it\u2019s worth, here\u2019s how many times players were picked before the Packers\u2019 first selection in these eight mock drafts:<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">So right now the only \u201cwon\u2019t be there\u201d prospects appear to be receivers Denzel Boston and Germie Bernard, defensive tackle Kayden McDonald, edge rusher T.J. Parker and cornerbacks Aveion Terrell, Colton Hood and Jermod McCoy. Besides them, all prospects are live options to varying extents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Green Bay Packers will finally be making a draft pick today, so let\u2019s take a look at&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":864831,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2072],"tags":[7,41,345,623,624,2514,2513,6,428],"class_list":["post-873636","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-green-bay-packers","tag-football","tag-green-bay","tag-green-bay-packers","tag-green-bay-packers-draft","tag-green-bay-packers-mock-draft","tag-greenbay","tag-greenbaypackers","tag-nfl","tag-packers"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116460591734029086","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/873636","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=873636"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/873636\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/864831"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=873636"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=873636"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=873636"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
