Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Packers.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Packers left edge rusher untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul.

The Melton pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the Round 1 slot they get a blindside protector. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
They paid sticker price for Tyler Nubin in the 41st overall pick, and that is fine. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick58 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at Round 2, Pick 26 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick88 Rnd3 Max Melton
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Max Melton at No. 88 is the proof. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Nothing to complain about; Trey Benson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson in pick 126 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
