Packers' Draft Picks: Filling Gaps, Fueling Runs

About this episode

Packers Fans: The 2025 Seasons Highs and Lows, and Draft Picks to Plug the Gaps

The Packers 2025 season was a rollercoaster, starting strong with a 5-1-1 record before injuries derailed their NFC kingdom dreams. Tight end Tucker Krafts ACL tear and Micah Parsons knee injury led to a collapse into the 7th seed and a heartbreaking wildcard loss to the Bears.

Free agency brought in Javon Hargrave for interior pressure, Benjamin St-Juste and Skyy Moore for speed, but at a cost: trading Rashan Gary, losing Elgton Jenkins and Rasheed Walker, leaving holes despite $23 million in cap space.

The playoff loss exposed thin depth and clutch issues, particularly an offense that stalls without explosive playmakers. Draft whispers hint at running back Robert Henry Junior, corner Avery Smith, and edge Malachi Lawrence to plug the gaps with burst, smarts, and fire.
