Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers cashed the board's mistake on Chambers: B-.

Call it larceny. Steele Chambers sat on the board until the 245th pick, and the Packers did not need to be asked twice. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

Reaching for Raym left real value on the table behind him. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get an island corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Fair-plus on Jordan Morgan, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins at the 58th pick is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks at pick No. 88 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick91 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
A reach on Braelon Allen in the Round 3 slot; the board had better options right there. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick126 Rnd4 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at slot 126 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick169 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
A reach for Ty'Ron Hopper in pick 169; a little patience would have been rewarded. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick202 Rnd6 Andrew Raym
Andrew Raym at No. 202 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
A big swing on Josh Proctor at No. 219, well ahead of any board in the building. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick245 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
Somehow Steele Chambers was still sitting there in the Round 7 slot, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick255 Rnd7 Blake Watson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Blake Watson this early at Round 7, Pick 35. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
