Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers robbed the room for Benson. Final grade: B-.

Call it larceny. Trey Benson sat on the board until slot 126, and the Packers did not need to be asked twice. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Greenfield has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a press-man option on the boundary. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick58 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They let Edgerrin Cooper come to them and pounced at the 58th overall pick. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick88 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in No. 88 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jaden Hicks in pick No. 91. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick126 Rnd4 Trey Benson
They robbed the room for Trey Benson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick169 Rnd5 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau at pick 169 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick202 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
A conviction pick on Garret Greenfield at the 202nd pick that the board grades a round light. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd6 Tylan Grable
They liked Tylan Grable enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 219. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick245 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
No edge and no loss on Josh Proctor in pick 245; it is a wash and a sensible one. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick255 Rnd7 Bub Means
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Bub Means at the Round 7 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
