Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Packers turned the phones into found money: B.

The tape said wait; the Packers did not. Micah Morris went at No. 257, a good 66 picks before the board was ready. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

However the rest shakes out, Branch at that price is a win they earned. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick91 Rnd3 Zachariah Branch
Zachariah Branch in Round 3, Pick 27 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick120 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance in the 120th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick121 Rnd4 Julian Neal
Julian Neal in pick No. 121 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick160 Rnd5 Zxavian Harris
Zxavian Harris in the Round 5 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick201 Rnd6 Justin Jefferson
By-the-book stuff, Justin Jefferson at No. 201 squarely in line with his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick216 Rnd6 John Michael Gyllenborg
A reach for John Michael Gyllenborg in pick 216; a little patience would have been rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick224 Rnd7 TJ Hall
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on TJ Hall. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick236 Rnd7 Isaiah Jatta
Value said wait; Isaiah Jatta in slot 236 says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick255 Rnd7 Adam Randall
They talked themselves into Adam Randall at the 255th pick, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick256 Rnd7 Deven Eastern
A real head-scratcher, Deven Eastern in No. 256 is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick257 Rnd7 Micah Morris
They left a pile of value on the table to take Micah Morris this early at pick 257. A need, and now a little less of one.
