Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureB-
The Packers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The Packers torched the value chart for Frank Crum, taking him 50 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. The Arnold pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

The Gray pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots still on the board. A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
Value with a capital V on Taliese Fuaga in Round 1, Pick 25, a genuine coup. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick41 Rnd2 Terrion Arnold
Terrion Arnold at the 41st overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick58 Rnd2 Junior Colson
They did well to land Junior Colson in No. 58, just ahead of his grade. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jaden Hicks in pick 88. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick105 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
By-the-book stuff, Zak Zinter at slot 105 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick110 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
They bypassed pressing needs at edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots to take Cedric Gray, a linebacker that was not the priority.
Pick126 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott at No. 126 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick169 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha at pick No. 169 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick181 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
A big swing on Joe Milton III at the 181st overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
No drama and no debate, Jaylan Ford went about where he belonged in pick 202. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick219 Rnd6 Kendall Milton
The board had Kendall Milton higher than the Round 6 slot, and the running back fell to them anyway. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick225 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
A real head-scratcher, Trey Taylor in slot 225 is miles ahead of his ranking. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick245 Rnd7 Frank Crum
Frank Crum at the 245th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick253 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
They took Sam Hartman at par in Round 7, Pick 33, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick255 Rnd7 Kimani Vidal
A straight-up fair deal on Kimani Vidal at slot 255, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
