Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Packers: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Braelon Allen tumbling to the Packers in pick No. 126 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Reaching for Raym left real value on the table behind him.

They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
They robbed the room for J.J. McCarthy here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick58 Rnd2 Junior Colson
Junior Colson in pick No. 58 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Fair-plus on Jaden Hicks, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick91 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Good price on Dominick Puni in Round 3, Pick 28, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick126 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
A running back of that caliber at the 126th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
They reached a country mile for Tanor Bortolini at pick 169, and the board is aghast. It fills a real need, too.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
They took Jaylan Ford at par in the Round 6 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick219 Rnd6 Andrew Raym
Andrew Raym at slot 219 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick245 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor in the 245th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick255 Rnd7 Daijahn Anthony
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Daijahn Anthony at the 255th pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
