Packers Scout Top Talent for Draft

0:00On April 22nd, the Green Bay Packers just wrapped up hosting 30 prospects at their facility ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft. General manager Brian Gutekunst knows these top 30 visits are gold for filling in scouting gaps and sizing up players as athletes and people. Without a first round pick this year, the Packers zeroed in on day two, day three picks, and even undrafted free agent targets to build depth smartly. These visits often pay off big, with pass-gast turning into draft steals or quick free agent signings that stick around in Green Bay. Standouts include offensive tackle Max Ikeonakor from Arizona State at number 30 on the Big Board, defensive linemen like Kristen Miller from, Georgia and Lee Hunter from Texas Tech, plus wide receivers Chris Brazel and Ted Hurst. By position, they scouted two quarterbacks, three running backs, four wideouts, three offensive linemen, five defensive linemen and solid numbers at, corner and safety.
