Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Packers a B-.

The Packers clearly saw something nobody else did in John Emery Jr., taking him 123 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

Getting Pearsall where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In pick 25 they get protection for the quarterback, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
They took Kris Jenkins at par in the 41st overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Edgerrin Cooper. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
A real head-scratcher, Jaden Hicks in Round 3, Pick 25 is miles ahead of his ranking. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick91 Rnd3 Ricky Pearsall
The board fumbled Ricky Pearsall all the way to pick No. 91, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones at No. 126 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jaylen Wright
A tidy little value on Jaylen Wright in No. 168, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick203 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
JD Bertrand in pick No. 203 is fair value, right on his grade. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick216 Rnd6 Daequan Hardy
They reached into another round for Daequan Hardy, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick243 Rnd7 John Emery Jr.
John Emery Jr. at the Round 7 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick251 Rnd7 Walter Rouse
Value said wait; Walter Rouse in Round 7, Pick 31 says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
