Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers let Suamataia fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Kingsley Suamataia, the 91st overall pick, roughly 30 picks past where he belonged. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Wallace pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 2 slot is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick58 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at the 58th pick is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick88 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
A tidy bit of business in slot 88, where Mike Sainristil graded well above the range. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Somehow Kingsley Suamataia was still sitting there in pick 91, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in pick No. 126 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick169 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
By-the-book stuff, Malik Mustapha at the 169th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick202 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
A reach for Drake Nugent in No. 202; a little patience would have been rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick219 Rnd6 Trevin Wallace
They went early on Trevin Wallace in No. 219, and the value did not follow. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick245 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
They jumped the gun on Sam Hartman, taking him earlier than his grade liked. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick255 Rnd7 Daijahn Anthony
The board fumbled Daijahn Anthony all the way to pick No. 255, and they scooped it up. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
