Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the Round 6 slot: the Packers steal Milton and grade out a B-.

Priorities are a choice, and the Packers made a strange one, taking Cedric Gray at linebacker in No. 126 with edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots crying out for the pick instead. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. If Bortolini pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

The Milton steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the 25th overall pick they get an island corner at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A reach on Edgerrin Cooper in the 41st pick; the board had better options right there. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick58 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
A quiet steal in pick No. 58: Javon Bullard for less than the market said. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick88 Rnd3 Max Melton
Max Melton slipping to pick 88 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick91 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
They took Christian Mahogany at par in No. 91, which is nothing to complain about. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
A want over a need in the Round 4 slot: Cedric Gray adds a linebacker while edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini in Round 5, Pick 33 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick202 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in Round 6, Pick 27 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick219 Rnd6 Kendall Milton
Taking Kendall Milton in the Round 6 slot is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
Tyler Owens at pick 245 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick255 Rnd7 Jalen Sundell
They read the board right and Jalen Sundell was the payoff at pick No. 255. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
