Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Packers never addressed edge rusher, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The Bortolini pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The back end got a real overhaul.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the Round 1 slot they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
By-the-book stuff, Javon Bullard at the 41st pick squarely in line with his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick58 Rnd2 Junior Colson
Junior Colson at Round 2, Pick 26 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick88 Rnd3 Trey Benson
A straight-up fair deal on Trey Benson at pick No. 88, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick91 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany at pick 91 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick126 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
A reach for Roger Rosengarten in the 126th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
They talked themselves into Tanor Bortolini at No. 169, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in slot 202 is fair value, right on his grade. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick219 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace at No. 219 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick245 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor at the 245th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick255 Rnd7 Josh Wallace
Good price on Josh Wallace in the 255th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
