Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesC- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Packers and Paul Jr.: B-.

When a board-topper like Chris Paul Jr. slides to slot 196, you do not overthink it, and the Packers did not. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

Every board in the league had Miller lower, and that gap is the story. For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Jack Sawyer
In Round 1, Pick 23 they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Matthew Golden
A quiet steal in pick No. 54: Matthew Golden for less than the market said. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick87 Rnd3 Trey Amos
Trey Amos at the 87th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick122 Rnd4 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in slot 122 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick158 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Smael Mondon Jr. in the 158th overall pick, plain and simple. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick196 Rnd6 Chris Paul Jr.
They barely believed it either: Chris Paul Jr. still on the board at the Round 6 slot. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick199 Rnd6 Cam Miller
A real head-scratcher, Cam Miller in No. 199 is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick200 Rnd6 Nohl Williams
Nohl Williams at pick 200 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick237 Rnd7 Jonah Monheim
The board fumbled Jonah Monheim all the way to pick 237, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick250 Rnd7 Nick Nash
They took Nick Nash at par in the 250th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick251 Rnd7 Cooper Mays
They left a pile of value on the table to take Cooper Mays this early at No. 251. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick254 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith in Round 7, Pick 38 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
