Draft Grade — Packers
Overall
C
ValueB-
NeedB
TradesF
FutureA+
The Packers got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C. The phones were a trap the Packers kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal.
The Briggs pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. McCormick falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.
If Jaylen Wright and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.
Pick Analysis
Pick62
Rnd2
Jaylen Wright
A tidy little value on Jaylen Wright in the Round 2 slot, a step better than break-even. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick83
Rnd3
Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul in pick No. 83 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick88
Rnd3
Malik Washington
A clean, defensible pick in the 88th pick with a little surplus value in Malik Washington. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick91
Rnd3
DeWayne Carter
Value said wait; DeWayne Carter in Round 3, Pick 28 says they were not listening. It fills a real need, too.
Pick93
Rnd3
DJ James
DJ James in slot 93 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick113
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
Value with a capital V on Ben Sinnott in No. 113, a genuine coup. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick114
Rnd4
Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara at the 114th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick116
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
A reasonable price with a little left over, Zak Zinter in pick 116. The roster fit checks out.
Pick126
Rnd4
Malik Mustapha
They took Malik Mustapha at par in slot 126, which is nothing to complain about. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick154
Rnd5
Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace at the 154th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick165
Rnd5
Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at the Round 5 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick169
Rnd5
Jordan Travis
They jumped the gun on Jordan Travis, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick202
Rnd6
Nathaniel Watson
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Nathaniel Watson. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick219
Rnd6
Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor at the 219th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick245
Rnd7
Jowon Briggs
Jowon Briggs at pick No. 245 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick255
Rnd7
Tatum Bethune
Tatum Bethune at pick 255 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
