Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesC FutureB-
The Packers cashed the board's mistake on McClellan: B-.

The board owed the Packers one, and it paid up: Jase McClellan, the No. 196 name on the board, sitting there at No. 245 like a gift left on the doorstep. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 25th pick they get a sticky cover corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
They paid sticker price for Chris Braswell in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
A straight-up fair deal on Kingsley Suamataia at pick 58, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
Pick88 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
No drama and no debate, Dominick Puni went about where he belonged in slot 88. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Fair-plus on Jaden Hicks, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick126 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in No. 126 is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick169 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd in the 169th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
By-the-book stuff, Jaylan Ford at pick No. 202 squarely in line with his ranking. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
Taking Jase McClellan in Round 7, Pick 25 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick255 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace in the 255th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jalen Sundell
Jalen Sundell at pick 256 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick257 Rnd7 Daijahn Anthony
Daijahn Anthony at the 257th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
