They also picked up linebacker Zahir Franklin in a trade with the Indianapolis Colt right before the window. Meanwhile, they've resigned Senator Sean Ryan and a few others to keep some continuity.

Defensively, under new coordinator Jonathan Ganon, they're leaning toward a 3-4 base featuring Hargrave up front and linebacker Micah Parsons in the mix for speed and disruption. Expect more changes in about a month when the 2026 draft rolls around. But for now, this gives a snapshot of how Green Bay is reshaping for the long haul.
