XVII; NO. 1 GREEN BAY ENTERS THE DRAFT WITH NINE SELECTIONS This weekend, the Green Bay Packers will welcome another rookie class to their roster through the NFL Draft, held April 30-May 2 at the Auditorium Theatre of Roosevelt University in Chicago. Armed with seven of their own selections plus two compensatory picks the Packers will have plenty of opportunities to add more talent and depth to their roster. All picks are eligible to be traded except for the compensatory choices. Green Bay enters the draft with a pick in every round, including three selections in the sixth round. For the third straight year, the event will begin in prime time on Thursday night, with Round 1 on April 30 beginning at 7 p.m. CT. Rounds 2-3 also will be held in prime time, beginning on Friday, May 1, at 6 p.m. CT. Rounds 4-7 will complete the draft on Saturday, May 2, starting at 11 a.m. CT. Teams will have 10 minutes in between selections in the first round and seven minutes between each choice for Round 2. Rounds 3-6 will allow up to five minutes in between picks and Round 7 will allow four minutes. All compensatory selections in Rounds 3-7 will be four minutes each. A look at where Green Bay currently stands in the draft order: Round Round # Overall # (comp.) (comp.) THOMPSON LEADS PACKERS INTO ANOTHER DRAFT GM Ted Thompson enters his 11th draft with the Packers, and he has long viewed the draft as the most important aspect of player acquisition. Thompson entered his first draft with Green Bay in 2005 armed with seven picks. Through draft-day trades, he wound up with 11 selections, highlighted by a pair of Pro Bowlers in QB Aaron Rodgers (first round) and S Nick Collins (second). In 2006, Thompson began draft day with seven selections, this time turning those seven picks into 12. The class included another pair of Pro Bowlers in LB A.J. Hawk (first) and WR Greg Jennings (second). In 2007, Thompson again used draft-day trades to acquire more selections and increase the competition for roster spots. That class included significant contributors such as WR James Jones (third), LB Desmond Bishop and K Mason Crosby (consecutive picks in the sixth round). That strategy was also implemented in 2008, as Thompson turned eight choices into 10 draft picks (nine players and a future pick). Selections such as Pro Bowl WR Jordy Nelson (second), TE Jermichael Finley (third) and Pro Bowl G Josh Sitton (fourth) made a significant impact. In 2009, the Packers entered the draft with nine selections but made one 2015 NFL DRAFT PREVIEW of the most dramatic moves over the course of the weekend when they traded back into the first round. After selecting DT B.J. Raji with the No. 9 pick, Thompson moved back into the first round to select LB Clay Matthews at No. 26. Though the Packers surrendered a second-round pick and two third-round choices to New England for the opportunity to draft Matthews plus a fifth-round pick, the Southern California linebacker has proven to be well worth it, earning the five selections to the Pro Bowl in his first six years. He passed Bill Forester ( ) for the most selections for a Packers linebacker. In 2010, Green Bay selected T Bryan Bulaga in the first round at No. 23. He started 33 games from and 15 of 16 last season after missing 2013 due to injury. Thompson moved up in the third round to select S Morgan Burnett (No. 71 overall), who has started 60 contests over the past four seasons. Seven of the 10 players in the 2011 draft class went on to appear in a game for Green Bay in their first season, highlighted by WR Randall Cobb (second round), who was named to the All-Rookie Team by Pro Football Weekly/PFWA as a kickoff returner and earned his first trip to the Pro Bowl this past season. The Packers entered the 2012 NFL Draft with 12 picks and traded up three times, highlighted by a second-round selection obtained from New England in exchange for the Packers' third-round choice and their fifthround pick. Green Bay used the second-round pick to select CB Casey Hayward, who led all NFL rookies with six INTs in 2012 and became the first Packers CB to be named to the All-Rookie Team by Pro Football Weekly/PFWA since the team was first selected in In 2013, Thompson entered the draft with eight choices and turned that into 11 picks through draft-day trades, highlighted by RB Eddie Lacy (second), who was named the NFL's Offensive Rookie of the Year by The Associated Press, and T David Bakhtiari (fourth), who became the first Green Bay rookie to start every game at LT since the league went to a 16-game slate in In last year's draft, Thompson used four of his first six picks to draft players who all made starts as rookies: S Ha Ha Clinton-Dix (10), WR Davante Adams (11), TE Richard Rodgers (five) and C Corey Linsley (16). Today s roster consists of 64 players, with 33 being drafted by Thompson. Of the 21 players to start 10 or more games for the Packers in 2014, 18 of them were drafted by Thompson NFL DRAFT NOTES 80th Annual NFL Player Selection Meeting, Chicago 256 total picks, including 32 compensatory choices awarded to 14 teams Thursday, April 30, 7 p.m. CT Time Limits Round 1 (3:39 in 2014) Round 1: 10 minutes Round 2: Seven minutes Friday, May 1, 6 p.m. CT Rounds 3-6: Five minutes* Rounds 2 & 3 (4:12 in 2014) Round 7: Four minutes* Saturday, May 2, 11 a.m. CT Television coverage Rounds 4-7 (7:04 in 2014) NFL Network, ESPN/ESPN2 Rounds 4-7 (7:04 in 2014) Internet coverage Packers.com, NFL.com *all compensatory selections in rounds 3-7 will be four minutes each

2 A LOOK INTO THE DRAFT ROOM General Manager Ted Thompson heads up the football operations, and he and Green Bay s coaches are well known to Packers fans. But working with Thompson is a talented and experienced football operations staff. Members of the personnel staff have spent months, if not years with some prospects, studying for the 2015 NFL Draft. They visit schools throughout the season, attending practices, dozens of games and pro days in the spring. In each area, they have formed relationships with high school and college coaches, trying to get a better idea of who the person is, not just the football prospect. Working closely with Thompson year round is Director of Player Personnel Eliot Wolf (12th NFL season), Director of College Scouting Brian Gutekunst (17th NFL season), Senior Personnel Executive Alonzo Highsmith (17th NFL season), West Regional Scout Sam Seale (20th NFL season) and Assistant Director of Pro Personnel Tim Terry (12th NFL season). Members of the scouting department include area scouts Lee Gissendaner (18th NFL season), Jon-Eric Sullivan (12th NFL season), John Wojciechowski (20th NFL season) and Richmond Williams (eighth NFL season), pro scouts Chad Brinker (sixth NFL season) and Glenn Cook (fifth NFL season), college scouts Mike Owen (fourth NFL season) and Alonzo Dotson (third NFL season), scouting assistant Charles Walls (third NFL season) and college scouting coordinator Danny Mock (28th NFL season).

With its 12-4 record and a loss in the NFC Championship Game, Green Bay will have the No. 30 selection in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft. So when was the last time the Packers chose at No. 30? It was 2008, when Green Bay traded the pick to the New York Jets for the 36th pick (WR Jordy Nelson) and a fourth-round pick the Packers later traded to the Jets. The last time Green Bay selected a player 30th overall was in 1997, T Ross Verba. Here is a look at the players selected at No. 30 in the first round over the past 10 drafts ( ): Year Team Player 2014 San Francisco S Jimmie Ward 2013 St. Louis LB Alec Ogletree 2012 San Francisco WR A.J. Jenkins 2011 N.Y. Jets DT Muhammad Wilkerson 2010 Detroit RB Jahvid Best 2009 Tennessee WR Kenny Britt 2008 N.Y. Jets TE Dustin Keller 2007 San Diego WR Craig Davis 2006 Indianapolis RB Joseph Addai 2005 Pittsburgh TE Heath Miller While first-round choices certainly can be the cornerstone of a franchise, as Thompson has shown with Pro Bowl selections Aaron Rodgers (2005), A.J. Hawk (2006), Clay Matthews (2009) and DT B.J. Raji (2009), second-round selections can prove to be just as valuable. WRs Jordy Nelson (2008) and Randall Cobb (2011) were both picked in the second and became the first duo in NFL history to both have 90-plus receptions, 1,200-plus yards and 12-plus touchdown receptions in the same regular season. Other second-round picks included CB Casey Hayward (2012), who became the first CB in franchise history (since 1967) to be named to the All-Rookie Team by Pro Football Weekly/ PFWA, and RB Eddie Lacy (2013), who was named the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year by The Associated Press and earned a Pro Bowl selection that season. Lacy is the only Packer to post 1,000-plus rushing yards and 10-plus total touchdowns in both of his first two seasons. With 22 starters and a 53-man roster, selections in the third round often turn into significant contributors for a team. WR James Jones (2007), TE Jermichael Finley (2008), S Morgan Burnett (2010) and TE Richard Rodgers (2014) were all third-round choices under Thompson. The fourth and fifth rounds have also been a spot the Packers have found starters. Of the Packers five starters on the 2014 offensive line, four were drafted in the fourth or fifth round: G Josh Sitton (2008/ fourth round), G T.J. Lang (2009/fourth round), T David Bakhtiari (2013/fourth round) and C Corey Linsley (2014/fifth round). A mainstay on the Packers defensive line over the last couple seasons, DT Mike Daniels (2012), was also drafted in the fifth round. Green Bay has also found key contributotors on both sides of the ball in the fourth and fifth rounds: C/G JC Tretter (2013/fourth) DB Micah Hyde (2013/fifth), DE Josh Boyd (2013/fifth) and TE Andrew Quarless (2010/fifth). Green Bay has received contributions from several late-round picks during Thompson s tenure, including DT Johnny Jolly (2006/sixth round), LB Desmond Bishop (2007/sixth round), K Mason Crosby (2007/sixth), QB Matt Flynn (2008/seventh), LB Brad Jones (2009/ seventh), RB James Starks (2010/sixth), DE C.J. Wilson (2010/ seventh) and LB Sam Barrington (2013/seventh).

Green Bay will appear on MNF for the 23rd consecutive season ( ), the second-longest streak behind the Broncos 24 seasons ( ). Green Bay has 13 games on Sunday, two on Thursday and one on Monday. The Packers bye arrives in Week 7, the first time they have had their open date that week since The Packers will kick off their season on the road for the third consecutive year.
