Packers Draft Choices
 
Updated 04/02/2022

The greatest needs for 2022 are:

1. Receiver - Maybe even 2 or 3.
2. Tight End - They've proven how good the "O" can be with a blocking/receiving TE.
3. Defensive Lineman - Another DL to groom as newly signed Jarran Reed is on a 1 year deal.
4. Quarterback - Backup QB situation is not good. What happens if Rodgers retires or gets injured?
5. Offensive Line - Both Tackle & Guard are needed,

The Packers received 2 compensatory picks (C.Linsley, J.Williams).

Rd Overall Players' Name Pos HT WT Speed College
1a 22/22 Chris Olave WR 6-0 187 4.39 Ohio State
Buttery-smooth athlete with home run speed and the athletic ability to uncover on all three levels. Olave can align all over the field, which is perfect for the LaFleur/Rodgers offense.
1b 28/28 Drake Jackson OLB 6-3 254   USC
Jackson's length and bend off the edge will intrigue NFL scouts
2a 21/53 Jahan Dotson WR 5-11 178 4.43 Penn State
Seriously, we can't believe he fell this far..
2b 27/59 Travis Jones DT 6-4 325 4.92 Connecticut
There's been growing hype about Travis Jones since he showed sheer dominance at the Reese’s Senior Bowl.
3 28/92 Jalen Wydermyer TE 6-4 255   Texas A&M
Wydermyer had immediate success at Texas A&M as he started as a true freshman and earned Freshman All-American honors. Physically, Wydermyer is exactly what you want at the tight end position with outstanding size and very good overall athleticism.
4a 27/132 Carson Strong QB 6-3 226 4.81 Nevadda
The Packers should be interested in adding a 3rd quarterback at some point. Strong completed 70 percent of his passes in 2020, all while maintaining a 27:4 touchdown-to-interception ratio (Rodgers-esque type numbers). Because of a dearth of good QBs available in this draft, Strong may be over-drafted. But right here is where he should be drafted.
4b 35/140 Spencer Burford OT 6-4 304 5.19 Texas - San Antonio
The Packers could target another offensive lineman to really bolster their blocking.
5 28/171 Logan Bruss G 6-5 309 5.32 Wisconsin
The Packers get a hometown (Kimberly, WI) guy to further bolster the offensive line.
7a 7/228 Jalen Nailor WR 5-11 186 4.50 Michigan
A slot receiver that might take a year to learn behind Randall Cobb.
7b 28/249 Isaiah Pola-Mao S 6-3 205 4.56 USC
7c 37/258 Josh Ross OLB 6-2 230 4.79 Michigan

Rd 1a (22/22) From Raiders for Davante Adams.
Rd 2a (21/53) From Raiders for Davante Adams.

Rd 4b (35/140) is a Compensatory Selection (Loss of Corey Linsley in Free Agency)

Rd 6 (# 235) to Texans for Randall Cobb

Rd 7a ( 7/228) From Bears via Texans for Ka'dar Hollman.
Rd 7c (37/258) is a Compensatory Selection (Loss of Jamaal Williams in Free Agency)
