The Green Bay Packers made eight picks in the 2025 NFL draft: Two at wide receiver, two along the offensive line, two at edge rusher and one each at defensive tackle and cornerback. While the order might not have been expected, the numbers coming out of the 2025 draft align nicely with the team's biggest roster needs.
As was the case last season, the team's roster construction entering the draft allowed Brian Gutekunst to bypass some other positions in favor of primary needs. The Packers follow their draft board and don't reach for needs, but the players they did draft do help tell a story in terms of short-term and long-term roster building.
