Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the Round 5 slot lands the Packers a B-, Jones and all.

You build a draft on nights like this. Jarrian Jones had no business being available in pick 169, and the Packers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

The Means reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In pick No. 25 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin in Round 2, Pick 9 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
A premium they did not need to pay, Kiran Amegadjie a notch or two before his time. It fills a real need, too.
Pick88 Rnd3 Trey Benson
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Trey Benson. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91 Rnd3 Maason Smith
A real head-scratcher, Maason Smith in No. 91 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick126 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
No drama and no debate, Beaux Limmer went about where he belonged in pick 126. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
The board fumbled Jarrian Jones all the way to the 169th overall pick, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick202 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield at the Round 6 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd6 Bub Means
Bub Means at No. 219 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The roster fit checks out.
Pick245 Rnd7 Donovan Jennings
Donovan Jennings at Round 7, Pick 25 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick255 Rnd7 Kalen DeLoach
Nice patience on Kalen DeLoach, who had no business lasting to the 255th pick. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
