Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

Some picks age like wine; Raylen Wilson at the Round 6 slot will need to, sitting 24 spots clear of his grade.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Payton. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
A slide stopped in pick No. 52, with Emmanuel McNeil-Warren worth more than the price. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick84 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
Value with a capital V on Domonique Orange in Round 3, Pick 20, a genuine coup. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick120 Rnd4 Logan Jones
The board had cheaper options than Logan Jones at slot 120, and it noticed. It fills a real need, too.
Pick158 Rnd5 Kaleb Elarms-Orr
A real head-scratcher, Kaleb Elarms-Orr in pick 158 is miles ahead of his ranking. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick199 Rnd6 Raylen Wilson
Value said wait; Raylen Wilson in the Round 6 slot says they were not listening. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick236 Rnd7 Noah Whittington
Noah Whittington is a better player than No. 236 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick254 Rnd7 Cole Payton
Cole Payton slid further than he should have, and No. 254 is lovely value for the quarterback. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick257 Rnd7 John Michael Gyllenborg
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and John Michael Gyllenborg at the 257th overall pick is the proof. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
