To this point, the story of the Green Bay Packers' offseason has been more about players leaving than joining.

Allen Lazard, Jarran Reed, Dean Lowry, and Robert Tonyan are among the Packers free agents to find new teams, while Aaron Rodgers will soon be a former Packer, too.

But the Packers will add talent to their roster in the 2023 NFL Draft. Entering the draft with various positions of need, it's hard to predict which direction the team will go in each round.
