Green Bay Packers: Full list of picks in 2019 NFL Draft
The Green Bay Packers have 10 selections in the 2019 NFL Draft.
The New Orleans Saints’ loss to the Los Angeles Rams was controversial, but the Green Bay Packers won’t care. It means the Packers will now receive the 30th overall pick from the Saints, their second of two first-round selections.
Green Bay currently has 10 picks in total. With two in the first round, general manager Brian Gutekunst will have an opportunity to add a couple of difference makers to the roster.
Here’s a full list of the Packers’ 2019 draft picks, according to Tankathon:
- Round 1, Pick 12 (12th overall)
- Round 1, Pick 30 (30th overall) – from New Orleans
- Round 2, Pick 12 (44th overall)
- Round 3, Pick 12 (76th overall)
- Round 4, Pick 12 (108th overall)
- Round 4, Pick 16 (112th overall) – from Washington
- Round 5, Pick 12 (140th overall)
- Round 6, Pick 12 (172nd overall)
- Round 6, Pick 22 (182nd overall) – from Seattle
- Round 7, Pick 12 (204th overall)
That’s excellent draft position. The Packers don’t just have a lot of picks to work with, but also two in the first round and six inside the top 112 overall.
It’s unlikely they’ll receive any compensatory picks this year, however. With Ted Thompson at GM it was almost a guarantee the Packers would receive at least one compensatory pick. But after last offseason’s free agency, that is unlikely this year, according to Over The Cap‘s cancellation chart.
Over The Cap notes that despite losing Morgan Burnett in free agency last offseason, the signing of Tramon Williams cancels it out. And that’s before we factor in the Jimmy Graham addition. It would be a surprise if the Packers received any compensatory picks this spring.
But that doesn’t matter. Gutekunst has plenty of picks to work with and should have opportunities to make trades. With two first-rounders, there’s the possibility of trading up or adding more picks by trading down from No. 30.
There weren’t too many exciting moments during the 2018 season, but draft season should be a lot of fun for Green Bay Packers fans.
