Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers robbed the room for Bowman Jr.. Final grade: B.

The Packers spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Billy Bowman Jr., the No. 121 name on the board, in pick 200. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered. They chose more darts over a bigger single swing.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In the 23rd pick they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Zy Alexander
Good price on Zy Alexander in Round 2, Pick 30, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick87 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dylan Fairchild. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick108 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo slid further than he should have, and the Round 4 slot is lovely value for the offensive lineman. It fills a real need, too.
Pick123 Rnd4 Carson Schwesinger
The board fumbled Carson Schwesinger all the way to slot 123, and they scooped it up. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick160 Rnd5 Chris Paul Jr.
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Chris Paul Jr. in the 160th overall pick, plain and simple. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick179 Rnd6 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander at pick No. 179 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick200 Rnd6 Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. at pick 200 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed in No. 239 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick251 Rnd7 Woody Marks
You do not let a running back like Woody Marks reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
