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

The rest of the league had time to spare on John Morgan III; the Packers did not wait, grabbing him 141 spots ahead at pick No. 243. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In No. 25 they get juice off the edge, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
By-the-book stuff, Tyler Guyton at Round 2, Pick 9 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick57 Rnd2 Graham Barton
They did well to land Graham Barton in the 57th pick, just ahead of his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick88 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Mike Sainristil in slot 88. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
They took Cole Bishop at par in the 127th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick168 Rnd5 Renardo Green
Renardo Green is a better player than the 168th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick203 Rnd6 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Steal is underselling it; Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at pick No. 203 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick216 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Christian Jones at pick 216. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick243 Rnd7 John Morgan III
John Morgan III in slot 243 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick251 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman in the 251st overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
