Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Vaki should have been long gone. The Packers pounced, and earned a B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Sione Vaki, the 202nd overall pick, roughly 44 picks past where he belonged.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Reaching for Bortolini left real value on the table behind him.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In slot 28 they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They went early on Edgerrin Cooper in Round 2, Pick 9, and the value did not follow. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick58 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran in the Round 2 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick88 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson at pick 88 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick91 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Value with a capital V on Calen Bullock in the 91st pick, a genuine coup. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones at pick No. 126 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick128 Rnd4 Christian Jones
No drama and no debate, Christian Jones went about where he belonged in No. 128. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson at the 134th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
A wild overpay on Tanor Bortolini in pick No. 169, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick202 Rnd6 Sione Vaki
They robbed the room for Sione Vaki here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick219 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace in the Round 6 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick245 Rnd7 Tyrice Knight
They paid a round early for Tyrice Knight in No. 245, more than the board wanted. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick255 Rnd7 Daijahn Anthony
Daijahn Anthony in slot 255 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
