Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Packers and Jones: B-.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Elijah Jones tumbling to the Packers in pick No. 243 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

The Kinchens reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson in slot 25 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
By-the-book stuff, Edgerrin Cooper at pick 41 squarely in line with his ranking. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
A reach for Kamren Kinchens in the 58th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick88 Rnd3 DJ James
DJ James at pick No. 88 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick91 Rnd3 Trey Benson
They took Trey Benson at par in Round 3, Pick 28, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick127 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves in the Round 4 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick168 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith in No. 168 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick204 Rnd6 Luke McCaffrey
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Luke McCaffrey in the 204th pick, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick216 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini in Round 6, Pick 41 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick243 Rnd7 Elijah Jones
The board fumbled Elijah Jones all the way to pick 243, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick251 Rnd7 Trey Knox
Value with a capital V on Trey Knox in the Round 7 slot, a genuine coup. The roster fit checks out.
