Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesF FutureA+
The phones sank the Packers this weekend: C+.

The Packers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Baylor Cupp at Round 7, Pick 36 regardless, 90 picks early. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C+.

Landing Watson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close.

A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick41 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
Cooper DeJean slipping to pick 41 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick58 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
No drama and no debate, Payton Wilson went about where he belonged in the 58th pick. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick92 Rnd3 Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer at the 92nd overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick106 Rnd4 Christian Mahogany
A tidy bit of business in the Round 4 slot, where Christian Mahogany graded well above the range. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick113 Rnd4 Ray Davis
Nothing to complain about; Ray Davis went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick125 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
They jumped the gun on Roger Rosengarten, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It fills a real need, too.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones in pick 126 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick146 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
A premium they did not need to pay, Kitan Oladapo a notch or two before his time. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick165 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
No edge and no loss on Malik Mustapha in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick169 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd at the 169th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick171 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
They reached into another round for Joe Milton III, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick172 Rnd5 Brandon Coleman
Brandon Coleman at Round 5, Pick 36 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in the 202nd pick is fair value, right on his grade. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick210 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
Taking Cornelius Johnson in slot 210 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jalen Sundell
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jalen Sundell this early at pick No. 219. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick241 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
They let Trevin Wallace come to them and pounced at the 241st pick. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick242 Rnd7 Daijahn Anthony
Daijahn Anthony in the 242nd overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
The board fumbled Nathaniel Watson all the way to No. 245, and they scooped it up. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick255 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
The board had cheaper options than Trey Taylor at slot 255, and it noticed. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick256 Rnd7 Baylor Cupp
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Baylor Cupp well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
Pick257 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Circle this one: Edefuan Ulofoshio at pick 257 is a fall that decides a draft. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
