Draft Grade — Packers
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
Nobody dealt better than the Packers this weekend: A-.

Some picks age like wine; Beaux Limmer at Round 3, Pick 28 will need to, sitting 35 spots clear of his grade.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

Getting DeJean where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.

Pick Analysis
Pick41 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
A quiet steal in pick 41: Cooper DeJean for less than the market said. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick88 Rnd3 Max Melton
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Max Melton in slot 88. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91 Rnd3 Beaux Limmer
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Beaux Limmer well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick101 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in No. 101 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick126 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
They paid a round early for Roger Rosengarten in Round 4, Pick 26, more than the board wanted. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick169 Rnd5 AJ Barner
AJ Barner in the 169th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick202 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
They paid sticker price for Joe Milton III in No. 202, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford slipping to pick 219 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick245 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
They talked themselves into Trey Taylor at slot 245, and the board did not agree. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick255 Rnd7 C.J. Hanson
C.J. Hanson in Round 7, Pick 35 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
