On March 27, with the 2026 NFL draft just one month away, mock drafts are heating up. The Green Bay Packers traded away their first round pick last August to get Micah Parsons from the Dallas Cowboys, so they start picking a number. 52 in the second round ESPN analyst Field Yates recently released a two-round mock and projects the Packers taking Texas Tech defensive tackle Lee Hunter at that spot. Yates notes Hunter could slide right into their new 3-4 defense under coordinator Jonathan Ganon playing nose tackle. Packers fans seem to prefer early picks at cornerback or edge rusher, but the team clearly needs more beef on the interior line after recent free. Agency moves. Hunter measures 6 feet, 3 and 320 pounds, with standout run defense skills including 32 tackles for loss over his, college career and a strong PFF grade last season. He might even start as a rookie alongside Javon Hargrave and Devante Wyatt. As the draft approaches April 23 through 25 in Pittsburgh, this pick could address a

key gap and boost Green Bay's front early.
