Draft Grade — Packers
Overall
D+
ValueB-
NeedB-
TradesF
FutureA+
The Packers bled value on every deal, hence the D+. The Packers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Jasheen Davis at the 250th overall pick regardless, 95 picks early. Hard to defend, and the D+ reflects that.
That Skattebo pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close.
The Packers clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.
Pick Analysis
Pick58
Rnd2
Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at Round 2, Pick 26 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick87
Rnd3
Aireontae Ersery
Somehow Aireontae Ersery was still sitting there in the Round 3 slot, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick124
Rnd4
Elijah Roberts
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Elijah Roberts well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick125
Rnd4
Tory Horton
Tory Horton is a better player than the 125th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick126
Rnd4
Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish in slot 126 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick142
Rnd5
Cody Simon
Cody Simon slipping to the 142nd pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick143
Rnd5
Darius Alexander
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 143, where Darius Alexander graded well above the range. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick159
Rnd5
Logan Brown
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Logan Brown at the Round 5 slot. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick160
Rnd5
Joshua Farmer
Joshua Farmer in the 160th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick161
Rnd5
Cam Skattebo
They will replay Cam Skattebo at Round 5, Pick 23 for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick165
Rnd5
Quincy Riley
No edge and no loss on Quincy Riley in pick 165; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick166
Rnd5
Ahmed Hassanein
A big swing on Ahmed Hassanein at slot 166, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick168
Rnd5
Jonah Monheim
Fair-plus on Jonah Monheim, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick169
Rnd5
Jack Kiser
They took Jack Kiser at par in the 169th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick170
Rnd5
Mitchell Evans
Steal is underselling it; Mitchell Evans at pick No. 170 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick173
Rnd5
Nick Nash
You do not let a wide receiver like Nick Nash reach the 173rd pick and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick177
Rnd6
CJ West
A real head-scratcher, CJ West in the 177th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick194
Rnd6
Teddye Buchanan
They reached into another round for Teddye Buchanan, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick206
Rnd6
Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at slot 206 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick215
Rnd6
Jordan Hancock
They let Jordan Hancock come to them and pounced at pick 215. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick222
Rnd7
Jonas Sanker
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jonas Sanker in Round 7, Pick 6. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick236
Rnd7
Isaac TeSlaa
Nice patience on Isaac TeSlaa, who had no business lasting to No. 236. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick237
Rnd7
Brady Cook
This one needs a full-page explanation: Brady Cook in the Round 7 slot, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick250
Rnd7
Jasheen Davis
They reached a country mile for Jasheen Davis at the 250th pick, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick255
Rnd7
Joshua Simon
Joshua Simon at the 255th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
