Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Packers a B.

The Packers clearly saw something nobody else did in Isaac Rex, taking him 67 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The Fautanu pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick50 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
Troy Fautanu at the 50th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick58 Rnd2 Christian Haynes
No edge and no loss on Christian Haynes in the 58th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick71 Rnd3 Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright at pick No. 71 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick76 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Payton Wilson in the Round 3 slot, plain and simple. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks at Round 3, Pick 27 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick91 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni in slot 91 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick98 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
The board had cheaper options than Cedric Gray at Round 3, Pick 35, and it noticed. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick115 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
They liked Beaux Limmer enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 115. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick120 Rnd4 Javon Solomon
A reasonable price with a little left over, Javon Solomon in the Round 4 slot. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
Pick121 Rnd4 Josh Newton
They paid sticker price for Josh Newton in slot 121, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick126 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
They took Isaac Guerendo at par in the 126th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jarrian Jones. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick138 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
They paid a round early for Justin Eboigbe in the 138th pick, more than the board wanted. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick149 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
A straight-up fair deal on Kitan Oladapo at pick No. 149, value and slot in agreement. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick169 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at pick 169 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick178 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson in the Round 6 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick206 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
No drama and no debate, Jared Wiley went about where he belonged in No. 206. The roster fit checks out.
Pick210 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson at the 210th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick212 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace in slot 212 is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick219 Rnd6 C.J. Hanson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for C.J. Hanson. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick226 Rnd7 Evan Anderson
Evan Anderson at Round 7, Pick 6 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick243 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
They paid up for Tyler Owens at pick No. 243 when waiting would have done the job. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick245 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
A conviction pick on Sam Hartman at slot 245 that the board grades a round light. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick255 Rnd7 Isaac Rex
They talked themselves into Isaac Rex at Round 7, Pick 35, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
