Draft Grade — Packers
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Packers bled value on every deal, hence the D-.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Drew Kendall at pick 250 is 42 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The Rourke pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Landon Jackson
In No. 30 they get a problem off the edge, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick54 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
A tidy little value on Aireontae Ersery in pick No. 54, a step better than break-even. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
They did well to land Jayden Higgins in the Round 2 slot, just ahead of his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick63 Rnd2 Darien Porter
They liked Darien Porter enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 63. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick66 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston at Round 3, Pick 2 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick87 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Darius Alexander. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick95 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in pick No. 95 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick124 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
The board had Smael Mondon Jr. higher than the Round 4 slot, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick133 Rnd4 Tyler Baron
Tyler Baron at Round 4, Pick 31 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick159 Rnd5 Ty Robinson
They paid sticker price for Ty Robinson in the 159th overall pick, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick161 Rnd5 Kurtis Rourke
Kurtis Rourke in pick 161 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick164 Rnd5 Logan Brown
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Logan Brown in the 164th pick, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick165 Rnd5 CJ West
They reached a country mile for CJ West at slot 165, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick168 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
The board had cheaper options than Dont'e Thornton Jr. at No. 168, and it noticed. The roster fit checks out.
Pick198 Rnd6 Tahj Brooks
Tahj Brooks at the 198th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick226 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
This one needs a full-page explanation: Teddye Buchanan in slot 226, miles early. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick237 Rnd7 Thomas Fidone II
Thomas Fidone II at pick 237 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick250 Rnd7 Drew Kendall
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Drew Kendall. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick251 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger in the Round 7 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick257 Rnd7 Elijhah Badger
Value said wait; Elijhah Badger in pick No. 257 says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
