Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA- FutureA
The Packers kept it disciplined and banked a B+.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Packers took Isaac Rex at pick 255, roughly 67 spots before his name belonged.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Getting Mims where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick41 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
The board had Amarius Mims higher than the 41st overall pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick58 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
No edge and no loss on Payton Wilson in pick No. 58; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick88 Rnd3 Max Melton
A tidy bit of business in No. 88, where Max Melton graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Nothing to complain about; Jaden Hicks went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick116 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones in slot 116 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick126 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
They took Mohamed Kamara at par in No. 126, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick153 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
A straight-up fair deal on Kitan Oladapo at the 153rd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tanor Bortolini. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick202 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson is a better player than pick No. 202 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick219 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace at the 219th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. The roster fit checks out.
Pick245 Rnd7 Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight in slot 245 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick255 Rnd7 Isaac Rex
Isaac Rex at Round 7, Pick 35 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
