Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The Packers put a flag in the ground for Trevin Wallace, 65 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In pick 25 they get an island corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
A clean, defensible pick in the 41st pick with a little surplus value in Jordan Morgan. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick58 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing T'Vondre Sweat in pick No. 58. The roster fit checks out.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jaden Hicks in No. 88. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick91 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A tidy little value on Dominick Puni in Round 3, Pick 28, a step better than break-even. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick126 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo in slot 126 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick169 Rnd5 Trevin Wallace
They left a pile of value on the table to take Trevin Wallace this early at the 169th overall pick. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick202 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
A quiet steal in Round 6, Pick 27: Tanor Bortolini for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick219 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor at the 219th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick245 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
They will replay Garret Greenfield at pick 245 for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick255 Rnd7 Tyrice Knight
By-the-book stuff, Tyrice Knight at No. 255 squarely in line with his ranking. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
