Pep Guardiola shares cautious optimism on Rodri's injury ahead of FA Cup semi-final
The Green Bay Packers will make picks at No. 52 and No. 84 in Day 2 of the 2026 NFL draft. Mock drafts suggest they may select LB Anthony Hill, Jr. from Texas and CB Julian Neal from Arkansas.
The Green Bay Packers sat out the first round but are now set to make picks at No. 52 overall and No. 84 overall on Day 2 of the 2026 NFL draft. Packers Wire ran through a few mock draft scenarios at the end of the first round on Thursday night, but here's who the Packers are getting in national Day 2 mock drafts dropping Friday:
Miller on Hill: "Finding fast, rangy linebackers who can also affect the game as a pass rusher is rare, but Hill is available in Round 2 after teams were uncertain about his run-game instincts. All he did in the past three seasons was fill up the box score with 17 sacks, eight forced fumbles and three interceptions."
Takeaway: Neal is a great fit at corner, and it's possible the board will fall in a way that elevates an off-ball linebacker to the top, but with Zaire Franklin, Edgerrin Cooper and Isaiah McDuffie, linebacker is not a big need in Green Bay.
The Packers are expected to select LB Anthony Hill, Jr. from Texas at No. 52.
The Packers are projected to draft CB Julian Neal from Arkansas at No. 84.
In his college career, Anthony Hill, Jr. recorded 17 sacks, eight forced fumbles, and three interceptions.
Hill is seen as a rare talent due to his speed and ability to impact the game as both a linebacker and pass rusher.

Baumgardner on Stukes: "Stukes (6-1, 193) can absolutely fly. He ran a 4.33-second 40-yard dash (and posted a 10-foot, 10-inch broad jump) at the combine, and he was all over the ball at Arizona (29 pass breakups, seven picks)."
Takeaway: Can Stukes play on the perimeter? The Packers are set in the slot and at safety. Depth at offensive tackle is required, but Bell is 6-9, didn't test well pre-draft and lacks the versatility the Packers like in offensive line picks.
Sikkema on Cisse: "Cisse gives you the movement skills and athleticism to play outside corner."
Takeaway: Cisse would represent good "value," relative to the consensus board, at a premium need position. Schrauth is talented, but he only played guard and has injury concerns.
Edwards on Orange: "Green Bay adds a stout interior defender to the equation. He will bottle up the middle and allow Micah Parsons to make more plays in the backfield.
Takeaway: Orange would solve a big problem in the middle of the Packers' defense, but is it too soon at 52? Bell looks like a slot receiver; the Packers have Jayden Reed.
Camenker on Cisse: "The Packers should consider investing in a true, No. 2 cornerback to play across from Keisean Nixon. Cisse is an elite athlete and allowed just 18 catches on 38 targets in his lone season at South Carolina. He’s scheme-versatile but will need to sharpen his route recognition to live up to his full potential."
Locker on Cisse: With their first pick in 2026, the Packers are oriented to select a cornerback given that both Keisean Nixon and Carrington Valentine are on effective one-year contracts. Cisse’s physicality and ball skills, especially in zone — where he earned a 72.1 PFF coverage grade in 2025 — make him an ideal fit.
Flick on Moore: "The Packers are expected to tap into the edge market, and Moore is a rock-solid option. He’s physical, consistent and a ready-made run defender with enough pass-rush flashes to eventually become a three-down player."
Takeaway: Moore looks the part on the edge, and he's coming off a 10-sack season at Michigan. His lack of pre-draft testing provides an uncertain athleticism profile.
