Just last week, Packers president and CEO Mark Murphy said he was hopeful for a total attendance of 250,000 for all three days of the 2025 NFL Draft in Green Bay. Well, the final result was more than double that. NFL officials announced on April 26 that the total attendance for the draft ended up at 600,000.

The NFL agreed. The praise for Green Bay, including a post from Brian McCarthy, NFL vice president of communications, was abundant. "Green Bay has been so good, so good to the @NFL this week. Amazing crowd sticking around 223 picks in," he wrote.
