Draft Grade — Packers

TradesB-
FutureB-
The Packers let Shough fall and pounced. Final grade: B. The board owed the Packers one, and it paid up: Tyler Shough, the No. 139 name on the board, sitting there at pick 236 like a gift left on the doorstep. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.
The Mauigoa pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.
They went 8 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The dealing was even money, start to finish.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick23
Rnd1
Armand Membou
In slot 23 they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick63
Rnd2
Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas in the 63rd overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick87
Rnd3
Maxwell Hairston
A tidy bit of business in the 87th pick, where Maxwell Hairston graded well above the range. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick95
Rnd3
Jordan Burch
A tidy little value on Jordan Burch in Round 3, Pick 31, a step better than break-even. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick124
Rnd4
Tory Horton
The board had Tory Horton higher than pick 124, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick126
Rnd4
TreVeyon Henderson
A top-tier running back at a bargain, TreVeyon Henderson in pick No. 126, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick142
Rnd5
Elijah Roberts
This one needs a full-page explanation: Elijah Roberts in the Round 5 slot, miles early. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick166
Rnd5
CJ West
CJ West at No. 166 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick194
Rnd6
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the Round 6 slot is the proof. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick198
Rnd6
Jack Kiser
You do not let a linebacker like Jack Kiser reach No. 198 and blink. They did not. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick236
Rnd7
Tyler Shough
Taking Tyler Shough in slot 236 is close to grand larceny; a quarterback that good had no business lasting this long. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick237
Rnd7
Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at the 237th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick241
Rnd7
Drew Kendall
Drew Kendall in pick 241 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick250
Rnd7
Francisco Mauigoa
They talked themselves into Francisco Mauigoa at the 250th pick, and the board did not agree. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
