Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesC+ FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Packers.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Packers spent the 255th overall pick on Devin Leary, a name the board had a full 51 spots lower. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

That James pick is the receipt they will wave around later. Spending an early pick on linebacker with wide receiver and interior defensive lineman open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In the 25th overall pick they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Junior Colson
Junior Colson at the 41st pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick62 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
A want over a need in slot 62: Payton Wilson adds a linebacker while wide receiver and interior defensive lineman keeps waiting.
Pick88 Rnd3 DJ James
DJ James at Round 3, Pick 25 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick105 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at pick No. 105 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick110 Rnd4 Ray Davis
No edge and no loss on Ray Davis in No. 110; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick113 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
They paid up for Beaux Limmer at slot 113 when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick126 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
They took Ben Sinnott at par in the 126th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick168 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kitan Oladapo in pick 168. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick169 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
A straight-up fair deal on Malik Mustapha at the 169th pick, value and slot in agreement. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick181 Rnd6 Khristian Boyd
Good price on Khristian Boyd in the Round 6 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick202 Rnd6 Trente Jones
A quiet steal in Round 6, Pick 27: Trente Jones for less than the market said. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford slid further than he should have, and No. 219 is lovely value for the linebacker. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick225 Rnd7 Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace slipping to pick No. 225 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick239 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at pick No. 239 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick245 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor in pick 245 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick253 Rnd7 Jalen Sundell
They did well to land Jalen Sundell in the 253rd pick, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick255 Rnd7 Devin Leary
A real head-scratcher, Devin Leary in Round 7, Pick 35 is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
