Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in Round 4, Pick 20: the Packers steal Tiernan and grade out a B.

The Packers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Caleb Tiernan fell into the 120th pick. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A fair-value weekend of trading, no edge to be found.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Rueben Bain Jr.
A edge rusher of that caliber at the Round 2 slot is the definition of value, full stop. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick84 Rnd3 Monroe Freeling
Steal is underselling it; Monroe Freeling at pick 84 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick120 Rnd4 Caleb Tiernan
Caleb Tiernan in the 120th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick160 Rnd5 DeMonte Capehart
They robbed the room for DeMonte Capehart here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick165 Rnd5 Oscar Delp
The board fumbled Oscar Delp all the way to the 165th pick, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick201 Rnd6 Charles Demmings
Charles Demmings in Round 6, Pick 20 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick220 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
They barely believed it either: Jeff Caldwell still on the board at slot 220. It fills a real need, too.
Pick236 Rnd7 Aaron Graves
Aaron Graves in pick No. 236 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick255 Rnd7 Andre Fuller
A tidy bit of business in Round 7, Pick 39, where Andre Fuller graded well above the range. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
