Draft Grade — Packers
Overall
B-
ValueB-
NeedB-
TradesA+
FutureD+
The Packers won the night they stopped Rosemy-Jacksaint from sliding. Grade: B-. Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint got past him. The Packers do not have to explain a thing at the Round 7 slot. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.
They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They are betting Anderson proves the room right and everyone else wrong.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Cooper DeJean
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick30
Rnd1
Graham Barton
In the 30th pick they get a cornerstone up front. A real need, handled.
Pick56
Rnd2
Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan at No. 56 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick58
Rnd2
Payton Wilson
They paid sticker price for Payton Wilson in slot 58, and that is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick85
Rnd3
Marshawn Kneeland
Fair-plus on Marshawn Kneeland, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick88
Rnd3
Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in pick No. 88 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick91
Rnd3
MarShawn Lloyd
MarShawn Lloyd in the 91st overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick105
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Zak Zinter. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick110
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
By-the-book stuff, Cedric Gray at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick126
Rnd4
Javon Foster
Javon Foster at the 126th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick128
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
A straight-up fair deal on Ben Sinnott at pick 128, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick130
Rnd4
Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones at the 130th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick133
Rnd4
Michael Pratt
No drama and no debate, Michael Pratt went about where he belonged in pick No. 133. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134
Rnd4
Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe at slot 134 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick144
Rnd5
Hunter Nourzad
They paid up for Hunter Nourzad at Round 5, Pick 8 when waiting would have done the job. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick145
Rnd5
Tommy Eichenberg
They took Tommy Eichenberg at par in No. 145, which is nothing to complain about. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick147
Rnd5
Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo in pick No. 147 is fair value, right on his grade. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick160
Rnd5
Malik Mustapha
They liked Malik Mustapha enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 5, Pick 24. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick164
Rnd5
Khristian Boyd
A conviction pick on Khristian Boyd at pick 164 that the board grades a round light. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick169
Rnd5
Tip Reiman
Tip Reiman at No. 169 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick171
Rnd5
Jordan Jefferson
A premium they did not need to pay, Jordan Jefferson a notch or two before his time. It fills a real need, too.
Pick172
Rnd5
Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini at the Round 5 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick174
Rnd5
Cody Schrader
No edge and no loss on Cody Schrader in the 174th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick175
Rnd5
Joe Milton III
They reached into another round for Joe Milton III, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick202
Rnd6
Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson in the 202nd pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick216
Rnd6
Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick219
Rnd6
Jaylan Ford
The board had Jaylan Ford higher than No. 219, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick239
Rnd7
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
You do not let a wide receiver like Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint reach the 239th overall pick and blink. They did not. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick245
Rnd7
Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace slid further than he should have, and pick 245 is lovely value for the linebacker. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick248
Rnd7
Trey Taylor
They reached a country mile for Trey Taylor at slot 248, and the board is aghast. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick249
Rnd7
Jordan Whittington
They paid sticker price for Jordan Whittington in Round 7, Pick 29, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick255
Rnd7
Jalen Sundell
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jalen Sundell at pick No. 255 is the proof. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick256
Rnd7
Evan Anderson
Evan Anderson in pick No. 256 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick257
Rnd7
Carlton Johnson
They jumped the gun on Carlton Johnson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
