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

The Packers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Smael Mondon Jr. fell into pick 196.

The Presley reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Running back is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In the 23rd pick they get a ballhawk on the back end. More want than need.
Pick54 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Circle this one: Tate Ratledge at Round 2, Pick 22 is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
They will replay Jihaad Campbell at pick No. 87 for years; that is how good the value is. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick122 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
You do not let a running back like TreVeyon Henderson reach pick 122 and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick158 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at the 158th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick196 Rnd6 Smael Mondon Jr.
They barely believed it either: Smael Mondon Jr. still on the board at No. 196. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick237 Rnd7 Bryson Nesbit
They jumped the gun on Bryson Nesbit, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick250 Rnd7 Brennan Presley
A wild overpay on Brennan Presley in the Round 7 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
