Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Packers.

The Packers put a flag in the ground for Tahj Washington, 145 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

The Franklin pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Tyler Nubin
In pick No. 32 they get a downhill hitter at safety at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick41 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
Fair-plus on Bralen Trice, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick57 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
They will replay Troy Franklin at Round 2, Pick 25 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick64 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
They let Kiran Amegadjie come to them and pounced at No. 64. The roster fit checks out.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jarrian Jones
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jarrian Jones this early at the Round 3 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick91 Rnd3 Ray Davis
Ray Davis in the 91st pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick125 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
They did well to land Darius Robinson in the Round 4 slot, just ahead of his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick135 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
They read the board right and Tommy Eichenberg was the payoff at the 135th overall pick. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick203 Rnd6 Charles Turner III
They talked themselves into Charles Turner III at pick No. 203, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
Pick217 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
A wild overpay on Tahj Washington in pick 217, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jaden Shirden
Jaden Shirden at the 219th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick246 Rnd7 Demorie Tate
The board had cheaper options than Demorie Tate at No. 246, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick253 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
A tidy bit of business in Round 7, Pick 33, where Nathaniel Watson graded well above the range. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
