Draft Grade — Packers
Overall

FutureB-
The Packers bled value on every deal, hence the D. Boards are made to be trusted, and the Packers shredded theirs for Julian Fleming. He came off 97 spots early, and the room will hear about it.
However the rest shakes out, Smith at that price is a win they earned. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down.
A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.
Pick Analysis
Pick23
Rnd1
Kenneth Grant
In pick 23 they get a disruptive interior force, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick55
Rnd2
Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea in the 55th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick87
Rnd3
Xavier Nwankpa
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Xavier Nwankpa in slot 87, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick119
Rnd4
Oscar Delp
A premium they did not need to pay, Oscar Delp a notch or two before his time. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick151
Rnd5
J. Michael Sturdivant
Steal is underselling it; J. Michael Sturdivant at the 151st pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick152
Rnd5
Zach Rice
A big swing on Zach Rice at No. 152, well ahead of any board in the building. The roster fit checks out.
Pick153
Rnd5
Malachi Moore
A safety of that caliber at Round 5, Pick 25 is the definition of value, full stop. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick154
Rnd5
Kyle Monangai
Somehow Kyle Monangai was still sitting there in No. 154, and they pounced on premier running back value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick155
Rnd5
Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills at the 155th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick156
Rnd5
Will Sheppard
Value said wait; Will Sheppard in pick 156 says they were not listening. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick157
Rnd5
Noah Fifita
Noah Fifita in pick No. 157 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick158
Rnd5
Gentry Williams
Gentry Williams in slot 158 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick159
Rnd5
Damien Martinez
Taking Damien Martinez in the Round 5 slot is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick160
Rnd5
Tyler Warren
They will replay Tyler Warren at the 160th pick for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick173
Rnd6
Gabe Jacas
Circle this one: Gabe Jacas at the 173rd pick is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick183
Rnd6
Fentrell Cypress II
Fentrell Cypress II in pick No. 183 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick185
Rnd6
Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser in the Round 6 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick186
Rnd6
Hunter Wohler
The board fumbled Hunter Wohler all the way to the 186th overall pick, and they scooped it up. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick188
Rnd6
Donovan Smith
Donovan Smith in Round 6, Pick 28 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick189
Rnd6
Xavier Restrepo
Xavier Restrepo at slot 189 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick190
Rnd6
Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at pick 190 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick193
Rnd7
Akheem Mesidor
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Akheem Mesidor at No. 193. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick202
Rnd7
J.J. Weaver
J.J. Weaver at slot 202 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick211
Rnd7
Connor Colby
No drama and no debate, Connor Colby went about where he belonged in pick 211. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick212
Rnd7
Jordan James
Jordan James at pick No. 212 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick213
Rnd7
Savion Williams
Savion Williams at Round 7, Pick 21 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick214
Rnd7
Julian Fleming
Julian Fleming at the 214th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick215
Rnd7
Zion Nelson
A wild overpay on Zion Nelson in the Round 7 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick216
Rnd7
Armand Membou
They reached a country mile for Armand Membou at the 216th overall pick, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick217
Rnd7
Jake Johnson
Jake Johnson in No. 217 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick218
Rnd7
Tony Grimes
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tony Grimes this early at pick 218. The roster reasoning here is anyone's guess.
Pick220
Rnd7
Davin Vann
Davin Vann in No. 220 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick221
Rnd7
Zane Durant
Zane Durant at Round 7, Pick 29 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick222
Rnd7
Keeshawn Silver
They reached into another round for Keeshawn Silver, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick223
Rnd7
Chantz Williams
A real head-scratcher, Chantz Williams in slot 223 is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick224
Rnd7
Shawn Murphy
They talked themselves into Shawn Murphy at the Round 7 slot, and the board did not agree. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
