Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The Rondell Bothroyd selection is the head-turner. The Packers reached 67 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

The Packers indulged a want in Solomon while a need in quarterback and interior defensive lineman stayed open. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the outside, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They jumped the gun on Jackson Powers-Johnson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick57 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
A straight-up fair deal on Chris Braswell at Round 2, Pick 25, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick88 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
They paid up for Tykee Smith at the 88th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick91 Rnd3 Javon Solomon
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback and interior defensive lineman to take Javon Solomon, an OLB-EDGE that was not the priority.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jaylen Wright
A wild overpay on Jaylen Wright in slot 126, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in the 168th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick203 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
A premium they did not need to pay, De'Corian Clark a notch or two before his time. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick216 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in the 216th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick243 Rnd7 Rondell Bothroyd
They left a pile of value on the table to take Rondell Bothroyd this early at pick No. 243. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick251 Rnd7 Tanner McLachlan
Value said wait; Tanner McLachlan in No. 251 says they were not listening. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
