Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
The Packers won the night they stopped Dennis-Sutton from sliding. Grade: B.

The Packers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Dani Dennis-Sutton fell into the 85th pick.

The Lawson reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

The trade work was a quiet net positive.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Tacario Davis
In pick No. 21 they get a sticky cover corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
Jack Sawyer in pick 51 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick83 Rnd3 Jay Higgins
They took Jay Higgins at par in Round 3, Pick 19, which is nothing to complain about. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick85 Rnd3 Dani Dennis-Sutton
Dani Dennis-Sutton at No. 85 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick115 Rnd4 Oscar Delp
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Oscar Delp in the 115th pick, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick117 Rnd4 Wyatt Milum
Fair-plus on Wyatt Milum, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick147 Rnd5 Zion Nelson
They paid sticker price for Zion Nelson in the 147th overall pick, and that is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick179 Rnd6 Jaheim Oatis
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jaheim Oatis. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick211 Rnd7 Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson in No. 211 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
