The Green Bay Packers have 10 draft picks in the 2023 NFL Draft. Recently, the NFL announced their compensatory picks and the Packers received more draft capital to work with in the draft. After the 2022 draft saw a lot of quality players, GM Brian Gutekunst is looking to duplicate that success with the Packers draft picks.

Positions Of Need
The tight end position is the most glaring need for the Packers. After Robert Tonyan signed with the Chicago Bears, the team needs some young talent at tight end. The good news is that this tight end class has a lot of talent. We could also see the Packers draft picks used to improve the safety position, as there are a lot of questions heading into this season. Expect the team to pick up a wide receiver or two, as well. Samori Toure was a successful seventh-round pick last year, and they may look to take a flyer on some players later.
