Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Packers: B-.

The war room fell hard for Jawhar Jordan, and it showed at the 202nd overall pick: 61 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

The Gray pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, quarterback and other spots. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In pick 25 they get a long-term starter on the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in No. 41 is fair value, right on his grade. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick58 Rnd2 Max Melton
By-the-book stuff, Max Melton at Round 2, Pick 26 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick88 Rnd3 Trey Benson
The board had cheaper options than Trey Benson at pick No. 88, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop in the Round 3 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick126 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
A surprising call. With edge rusher, quarterback and other spots still to address, they spent the 126th overall pick on Cedric Gray, a linebacker they were not short of.
Pick169 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
A reasonable price with a little left over, Luke McCaffrey in Round 5, Pick 33. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
They talked themselves into Jawhar Jordan at pick No. 202, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick219 Rnd6 Tip Reiman
They took Tip Reiman at par in the 219th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick245 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
A straight-up fair deal on LaDarius Henderson at slot 245, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick255 Rnd7 Marcellas Dial
No edge and no loss on Marcellas Dial in the 255th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
