Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueD NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers landed square in the muddy middle: C+.

The tape said wait; the Packers did not. Cameron Williams went at No. 23, a good 46 picks before the board was ready. It nets out a thoroughly average C+.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. Harris at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Cameron Williams
In pick No. 23 they get an anchor for the offensive line, a steep price for the projection.
Pick54 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Maxwell Hairston well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick87 Rnd3 Sebastian Castro
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Sebastian Castro. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick124 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
Value with a capital V on Cam Skattebo in pick 124, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick159 Rnd5 Connor Colby
Value said wait; Connor Colby in No. 159 says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick198 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
No drama and no debate, KeAndre Lambert-Smith went about where he belonged in the 198th pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick237 Rnd7 Brant Kuithe
They talked themselves into Brant Kuithe at pick No. 237, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick250 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
Taking Jermari Harris in No. 250 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
