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

There is reaching, and then there is Drake Nugent at pick 169. The Packers jumped the board by 42 and dared it to prove them wrong. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

Spending an early pick on safety with wide receiver, tight end and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Chambers.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In pick 25 they get a ballhawk on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Junior Colson
A clean, defensible pick in the 57th overall pick with a little surplus value in Junior Colson. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick58 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
Adisa Isaac at No. 58 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in slot 88 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick92 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Good price on Dominick Puni in the 92nd pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick93 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
By-the-book stuff, Christian Mahogany at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick96 Rnd3 Cole Bishop
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Cole Bishop at safety with wide receiver, tight end and other spots open.
Pick126 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
They paid a round early for Roger Rosengarten in the 126th overall pick, more than the board wanted. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick165 Rnd5 Walter Rouse
They took Walter Rouse at par in No. 165, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick169 Rnd5 Drake Nugent
A wild overpay on Drake Nugent in the Round 5 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick212 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers slipping to Round 6, Pick 37 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick219 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at pick 219 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick245 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
A reach for Tyler Owens in the 245th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick255 Rnd7 Austin Reed
A big swing on Austin Reed at pick No. 255, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
