Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Packers a B-.

There is a lot to like until you notice quarterback is still a hole. The Packers never got to the one that mattered most.

The Clark reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Jadarian Price
They went early on Jadarian Price in slot 52, and the value did not follow. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick84 Rnd3 Caden Curry
Caden Curry at No. 84 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick120 Rnd4 Tacario Davis
Fair-plus on Tacario Davis, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick158 Rnd5 Bud Clark
Bud Clark at pick No. 158 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick199 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
No drama and no debate, Trey Zuhn III went about where he belonged in the 199th overall pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick236 Rnd7 Jalil Farooq
Jalil Farooq at pick 236 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick254 Rnd7 Ja'Keem Jackson
A tidy little value on Ja'Keem Jackson in the Round 7 slot, a step better than break-even. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick257 Rnd7 Preston Hodge
Preston Hodge in the 257th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
