Draft Grade — Packers
Overall

FutureB-
The Packers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-. The Packers went off the board in a big way for Fred Davis, 102 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.
Simon at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick23
Rnd1
Mike Green
In slot 23 they get a disruptor off the edge, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63
Rnd2
Tyleik Williams
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tyleik Williams at pick No. 63. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick87
Rnd3
Maxwell Hairston
They jumped the gun on Maxwell Hairston, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick95
Rnd3
Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart in pick 95 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick122
Rnd4
Quinshon Judkins
Steal is underselling it; Quinshon Judkins at the 122nd pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick158
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the Round 5 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick160
Rnd5
Theo Wease Jr.
They reached into another round for Theo Wease Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick164
Rnd5
Jake Majors
Somehow Jake Majors was still sitting there in the 164th overall pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick166
Rnd5
Smael Mondon Jr.
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Smael Mondon Jr. in Round 5, Pick 29, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick196
Rnd6
Cody Simon
They will replay Cody Simon at slot 196 for years; that is how good the value is. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick237
Rnd7
Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim in No. 237 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick250
Rnd7
Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at pick 250 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick251
Rnd7
Fred Davis
They talked themselves into Fred Davis at the 251st pick, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick252
Rnd7
Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans at the Round 7 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick254
Rnd7
KJ Jefferson
A wild overpay on KJ Jefferson in Round 7, Pick 38, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
