Draft Grade — Packers
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Packers to a D-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Packers started one anyway for Francisco Mauigoa, 72 picks ahead of schedule. Too much went sideways, and the D- is the honest tally.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The Colby steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and running back is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick54 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jihaad Campbell in the Round 2 slot. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick62 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston at the 62nd pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick63 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
By-the-book stuff, Jayden Higgins at slot 63 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick66 Rnd3 Ashton Gillotte
They left a pile of value on the table to take Ashton Gillotte this early at Round 3, Pick 2. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick67 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
A slide stopped in the 67th overall pick, with Alfred Collins worth more than the price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick87 Rnd3 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor slipping to pick No. 87 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jordan Burch
Jordan Burch at pick 88 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick95 Rnd3 Quinn Ewers
Nothing to complain about; Quinn Ewers went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick96 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant in Round 3, Pick 32 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick124 Rnd4 Tory Horton
They let Tory Horton come to them and pounced at the 124th overall pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Steal is underselling it; Jared Wilson at slot 126 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick159 Rnd5 Elijah Roberts
Value said wait; Elijah Roberts in pick No. 159 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick179 Rnd6 CJ West
They took CJ West at par in No. 179, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick198 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They barely believed it either: Dont'e Thornton Jr. still on the board at the Round 6 slot. The roster fit checks out.
Pick206 Rnd6 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at pick 206 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick221 Rnd7 Connor Colby
Connor Colby in pick No. 221 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick226 Rnd7 Francisco Mauigoa
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Francisco Mauigoa well ahead of where he belonged. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick237 Rnd7 Drew Kendall
They reached a country mile for Drew Kendall at No. 237, and the board is aghast. It fills a real need, too.
Pick250 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
You do not let a safety like Jordan Hancock reach slot 250 and blink. They did not. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick251 Rnd7 Joshua Simon
They talked themselves into Joshua Simon at the Round 7 slot, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick255 Rnd7 Elijhah Badger
Elijhah Badger in the 255th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick257 Rnd7 Kain Medrano
They reached into another round for Kain Medrano, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
