Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Larceny in the 255th overall pick lands the Packers a B+, Harden and all.

When a board-topper like Myles Harden slides to pick No. 255, you do not overthink it, and the Packers did not. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

They are betting Hanson proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.

For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain. Budda Baker gives the group a proven body among the projects.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
By-the-book stuff, Kool-Aid McKinstry at No. 27 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton at the 41st pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick58 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper slipping to slot 58 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick88 Rnd3 Ricky Pearsall
The board fumbled Ricky Pearsall all the way to the Round 3 slot, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick91 Rnd3 Audric Estime
They went early on Audric Estime in Round 3, Pick 28, and the value did not follow. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
A straight-up fair deal on Mohamed Kamara at pick 126, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
The board had cheaper options than Jordan Jefferson at pick No. 169, and it noticed. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick202 Rnd6 Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones in the 202nd overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick219 Rnd6 C.J. Hanson
A wild overpay on C.J. Hanson in Round 6, Pick 44, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It fills a real need, too.
Pick245 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
A real head-scratcher, Sam Hartman in No. 245 is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick255 Rnd7 Myles Harden
Myles Harden in the 255th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
