Draft Grade — Packers
Overall

FutureF
Flashes of a plan, unevenly executed. Packers: C+. Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Josiah Ezirim at the 202nd pick is 90 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.
The Hadden pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.
In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Cooper DeJean
In the Round 1 slot they get a potential shutdown corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick26
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In the 26th overall pick they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick28
Rnd1
Tyler Guyton
In No. 28 they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41
Rnd2
Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in pick 41 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
Pick58
Rnd2
Max Melton
Max Melton in pick No. 58 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick88
Rnd3
Jaden Hicks
Nothing to complain about; Jaden Hicks went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick91
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in No. 91 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick126
Rnd4
Michael Pratt
The board had cheaper options than Michael Pratt at slot 126, and it noticed. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick169
Rnd5
Jaheim Bell
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 5 slot with a little surplus value in Jaheim Bell. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick200
Rnd6
Malik Mustapha
Somehow Malik Mustapha was still sitting there in the 200th pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick202
Rnd6
Josiah Ezirim
A wild overpay on Josiah Ezirim in the 202nd overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick219
Rnd6
Kamal Hadden
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Kamal Hadden in pick No. 219, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick220
Rnd6
Jase McClellan
They robbed the room for Jase McClellan here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick245
Rnd7
Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor at pick 245 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick246
Rnd7
Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace at Round 7, Pick 26 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick252
Rnd7
Sam Hartman
They took Sam Hartman at par in No. 252, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick255
Rnd7
Evan Anderson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Evan Anderson in slot 255, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
