Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
McCormick should have been long gone. The Packers pounced, and earned a B-.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Mason McCormick tumbling to the Packers in No. 169 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. Reaching for Smith left real value on the table behind him. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In pick 25 they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
A slide stopped in pick No. 41, with Cooper DeJean worth more than the price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick58 Rnd2 Junior Colson
Junior Colson at the 58th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
A tidy little value on Jaden Hicks in the Round 3 slot, a step better than break-even. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick91 Rnd3 Maason Smith
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Maason Smith. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick126 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at No. 126 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick169 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
They barely believed it either: Mason McCormick still on the board at slot 169. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick202 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at Round 6, Pick 27 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick219 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
They did well to land Caedan Wallace in Round 6, Pick 44, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick245 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor in No. 245 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick255 Rnd7 Bub Means
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 255, where Bub Means graded well above the range. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
