Packers 7-round mock draft: RAS stars and fits at need positions
A seven round mock draft for the Packers featuring elite athletes and fits at several need positions on the roster.
The first round of the 2026 NFL draft is now three weeks away. What do we know about the Green Bay Packers and the draft? Brian Gutekunst loves elite athletes, and he has certain athletic benchmarks he uses to find the best fits at individual positions.
Here's a seven-round mock draft -- using PFF's mock simulator -- featuring Relative Athletic Score stars and fits for what the Packers like at several need spots on the roster: Penn State's Dani Dennis-Sutton provides an experienced Big Ten edge rusher with elite athleticism (9. 96 RAS) to stabilize the position long-term behind Micah Parsons. He checks all the boxes fore the Packers at edge rusher.
Julian Neal, the Arkansas cornerback, looks like one of the best Day 2 fits for the Packers at one of the roster's biggest need spots. He has terrific length, and he tested well (9. 26 RAS) -- plus he's an easy fit as a zone corner in Jonathan Gannon's scheme.
DeMonte Capehart didn't produce big numbers at Clemson, but he's a wall against the run and would immediately upgrade the Packers front, possibly as a 5-tech in the odd front. He was an elite tester with a 9. 96 RAS.
