Draft Grade — Packers
Overall

ValueB+
NeedB-

FutureB-
Pritchett should have been long gone. The Packers pounced, and earned a B+. The Packers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Nehemiah Pritchett fell into pick 202. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The Limmer pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.
The veteran additions, Creed Humphrey chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Brock Bowers
In the 25th overall pick they get a matchup weapon at tight end, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick58
Rnd2
Payton Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Payton Wilson at pick 58 squarely in line with his ranking. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick64
Rnd2
Patrick Paul
They paid sticker price for Patrick Paul in No. 64, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick88
Rnd3
Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard in Round 3, Pick 25 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick97
Rnd3
Beaux Limmer
This one needs a full-page explanation: Beaux Limmer in slot 97, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick126
Rnd4
Will Shipley
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Will Shipley in pick No. 126, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick169
Rnd5
Javon Foster
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 169th pick is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick171
Rnd5
Dallin Holker
Somehow Dallin Holker was still sitting there in the Round 5 slot, and they pounced on premier tight end value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick172
Rnd5
Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha in the Round 5 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick202
Rnd6
Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett at slot 202 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick214
Rnd6
Fabien Lovett
Circle this one: Fabien Lovett at pick No. 214 is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick219
Rnd6
Cody Schrader
They robbed the room for Cody Schrader here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick245
Rnd7
Trente Jones
You do not let an offensive lineman like Trente Jones reach No. 245 and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick255
Rnd7
Daijahn Anthony
The board fumbled Daijahn Anthony all the way to the 255th pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick256
Rnd7
Richard Jibunor
They paid up for Richard Jibunor at pick 256 when waiting would have done the job. It fits a board better than it fits this team.
Pick257
Rnd7
Trey Taylor
They paid a round early for Trey Taylor in Round 7, Pick 39, more than the board wanted. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
