Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Packers lost the trade table, and the C tells the story.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Packers did exactly that with Patrick Payton in pick 160. It nets out a thoroughly average C.

The Golday pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.

Hit on D'Angelo Ponds and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 D'Angelo Ponds
D'Angelo Ponds in No. 52 lands just on the right side of the ledger. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick84 Rnd3 Daylen Everette
Nothing to complain about; Daylen Everette went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick120 Rnd4 Jake Golday
Jake Golday in the 120th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick121 Rnd4 Ted Hurst
You do not let a wide receiver like Ted Hurst reach pick No. 121 and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick160 Rnd5 Patrick Payton
They talked themselves into Patrick Payton at pick 160, and the board did not agree. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick161 Rnd5 Zxavian Harris
Zxavian Harris at the Round 5 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick162 Rnd5 Kaytron Allen
They let Kaytron Allen come to them and pounced at slot 162. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick173 Rnd5 Red Murdock
They left a pile of value on the table to take Red Murdock this early at Round 5, Pick 33. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick201 Rnd6 Keagen Trost
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Keagen Trost in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick211 Rnd6 Diego Pavia
This one needs a full-page explanation: Diego Pavia in pick 211, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick236 Rnd7 John Michael Gyllenborg
John Michael Gyllenborg slipping to pick No. 236 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick250 Rnd7 Alan Herron
By-the-book stuff, Alan Herron at the 250th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick253 Rnd7 Desmond Reid
Desmond Reid in No. 253 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick255 Rnd7 Deven Eastern
Deven Eastern in the 255th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jack Velling
Value said wait; Jack Velling in pick 256 says they were not listening. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick257 Rnd7 Micah Morris
They reached into another round for Micah Morris, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
