Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Packers, and a B- to prove it.

The war room fell hard for Evan Williams, and it showed at pick No. 251: 44 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. With edge rusher, quarterback and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
The board had cheaper options than Jackson Powers-Johnson at slot 35, and it noticed. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
A tidy little value on Kamren Kinchens in pick 41, a step better than break-even. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick57 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
A wide receiver of that caliber at the Round 2 slot is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick66 Rnd3 T'Vondre Sweat
A slide stopped in pick No. 66, with T'Vondre Sweat worth more than the price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick88 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Nice patience on Junior Colson, who had no business lasting to the 88th pick. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Jaden Hicks adds a safety and leaves edge rusher, quarterback and other spots untouched.
Pick92 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending slot 92 on Cedric Gray with edge rusher, quarterback and other spots unsolved.
Pick168 Rnd5 Isaiah Davis
A wild overpay on Isaiah Davis in pick 168, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick203 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A straight-up fair deal on Christian Jones at the Round 6 slot, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick216 Rnd6 Marcellas Dial
The board fumbled Marcellas Dial all the way to the 216th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick243 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
Daequan Hardy in Round 7, Pick 23 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick251 Rnd7 Evan Williams
They reached into another round for Evan Williams, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
