Draft Grade — Packers

ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 84th pick lands the Packers a B-, Ponds and all.

Call it larceny. D'Angelo Ponds sat on the board until pick 84, and the Packers did not need to be asked twice.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
They let Caleb Banks come to them and pounced at the 52nd overall pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick84 Rnd3 D'Angelo Ponds
They will replay D'Angelo Ponds at the 84th pick for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick120 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance in pick No. 120 is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick158 Rnd5 Jude Bowry
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jude Bowry at No. 158 is the proof. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick199 Rnd6 Lander Barton
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Lander Barton in slot 199. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick236 Rnd7 Kaden Wetjen
Kaden Wetjen slipping to pick 236 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It fills a real need, too.
Pick254 Rnd7 Charles Demmings
They read the board right and Charles Demmings was the payoff at the Round 7 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick257 Rnd7 Alan Herron
They took Alan Herron at par in Round 7, Pick 41, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
