All roster needs aren't created equal. Some are long-term focused. Others need more immediate attention.
The Green Bay Packers will go into the 2025 NFL draft with several positions needing both an influx of talent and numbers for right now. But unlike last year, when the Packers needed rookies to be contributors right away, Matt LaFleur's team is well positioned entering this year's draft. The Packers could realistically play a football game and be highly competitive right now without a single rookie contributing. But the draft is both about adding help for now and addressing long-term needs -- and 2026 and beyond needs help.
