Draft Grade — Packers
Overall
C-
ValueA-
NeedB
TradesF
FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Packers for Mondon Jr.: C-. The rest of the league will want that one back. Smael Mondon Jr. tumbling to the Packers in the Round 6 slot is a gift they did not have to think twice about. For now it grades a C-, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.
They will need Batty to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back.
If Tetairoa McMillan and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In the 30th pick they get a true top target, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick54
Rnd2
Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge in pick No. 54 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
Pick62
Rnd2
Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams is a better player than Round 2, Pick 30 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
Pick87
Rnd3
Nick Emmanwori
The board fumbled Nick Emmanwori all the way to pick 87, and they scooped it up. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick88
Rnd3
Jihaad Campbell
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jihaad Campbell in the Round 3 slot, plain and simple. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick89
Rnd3
Aireontae Ersery
You do not let an offensive lineman like Aireontae Ersery reach No. 89 and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick122
Rnd4
Maxwell Hairston
They barely believed it either: Maxwell Hairston still on the board at slot 122. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick158
Rnd5
Jake Majors
Somehow Jake Majors was still sitting there in the 158th overall pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick161
Rnd5
Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas in slot 161 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick196
Rnd6
Cam Miller
Cam Miller at Round 6, Pick 21 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick199
Rnd6
Tyler Batty
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Batty in No. 199, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick200
Rnd6
Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in pick No. 200 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick223
Rnd7
Seth McLaughlin
They will replay Seth McLaughlin at the 223rd overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick237
Rnd7
Jack Kiser
Steal is underselling it; Jack Kiser at the 237th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick241
Rnd7
Jacobe Covington
A real head-scratcher, Jacobe Covington in the Round 7 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick250
Rnd7
Mitchell Evans
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Mitchell Evans well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
