Huge decisions await the Green Bay Packers over the next seven days.

Which players will they add to their roster in the 2023 NFL Draft? Will they make any trades on draft night? Picks made in the coming week will help shape the beginning of the Jordan Love era in Green Bay.

Ahead of the excitement of draft week, it's time for our latest NFL two-round mock draft featuring trades.

It's all fun and games until the Minnesota Vikings ruin the day.

2023 NFL Mock Draft: Packers dreams crushed by Vikings

1. Carolina Panthers: Bryce Young, QB, Alabama

In what could be a first round filled with surprises, this feels like a safe pick at this point. Bryce Young should be the choice for Carolina.

2. Houston Texans: C.J. Stroud, QB, Ohio State

Will the Texans take a quarterback or trade down? In the end, they make the right call and draft Ohio State's C.J. Stroud.

3. Trade Detroit Lions: Anthony Richardson, QB, Florida

The first huge trade of the evening sees the Packers' division rivals move up for a quarterback. Anthony Richardson has star potential, so this would be concerning for the Packers and the rest of the NFC North.

4. Indianapolis Colts: Will Levis, QB, Kentucky

A run on quarterbacks with the top four picks? It's entirely possible.

5. Seattle Seahawks: Jalen Carter, DL, Georgia

With quarterbacks taken with every pick, the Seahawks get their choice of the top defensive players, selecting Georgia's Jalen Carter.

6. Arizona Cardinals: Will Anderson, EDGE, Alabama

A perfect scenario for the Cardinals. Even after trading down three spots, they still land Alabama's Will Anderson, the best pass rusher in the class.
