Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Packers.

The Cedric Gray selection is the head-turner. The Packers reached 22 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Booker.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 25th overall pick they get a potential shutdown corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
They did well to land Jordan Morgan in No. 41, just ahead of his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick58 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Braden Fiske. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick88 Rnd3 Austin Booker
They let Austin Booker come to them and pounced at the 88th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at pick 91 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick126 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in Round 4, Pick 26 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick169 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha at the Round 5 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick202 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
A premium they did not need to pay, Nathaniel Watson a notch or two before his time. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick219 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
A tidy little value on Garret Greenfield in pick 219, a step better than break-even. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick245 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
A conviction pick on Tyler Owens at Round 7, Pick 25 that the board grades a round light. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick255 Rnd7 Matt Lee
This one needs a full-page explanation: Matt Lee in pick No. 255, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
