Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Braelon Allen at pick No. 126, a reach of 29 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

McClellan falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In No. 25 they get a press-man option on the boundary, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
They paid sticker price for Kris Jenkins in pick No. 41, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick57 Rnd2 Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock in Round 2, Pick 25 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick88 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
Blake Fisher in the 88th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau in the Round 3 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick126 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
A wild overpay on Braelon Allen in slot 126, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson at Round 5, Pick 32 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick203 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
JD Bertrand at slot 203 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick216 Rnd6 Isaiah Williams
They will replay Isaiah Williams at the 216th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick243 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
Circle this one: Jase McClellan at the 243rd pick is a fall that decides a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jeremy James
Jeremy James in the Round 7 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
