Packers awarded 3 compensatory picks in 2024 NFL draft
The NFL awarded the Green Bay Packers three compensatory draft picks — all on Day 3 — in the 2024 NFL draft.
The Packers were given a compensatory pick in the fifth round, sixth round and seventh round as a result of the unrestricted free agent market last year.
The three added picks:
— No. 168, fifth round
— No. 219, sixth round
— No. 255, seventh round
The Packers lost qualifying free agents Allen Lazard (New York Jets), Jarran Reed (Seattle Seahawks), Dean Lowry (Minnesota Vikings) and Robert Tonyan (Chicago Bears) and didn’t sign any qualifying free agents last year.
The Packers will go into the draft with 11 total picks: five in the first three rounds and six between rounds four and seven.
