Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB- TradesC FutureC
A mixed bag for the Packers, and a C+ to match.

Nobody had Jackson Sirmon this high, and it is not close. The Packers reached 52 spots to get him at Round 7, Pick 25.

That Dixon pick is the receipt they will wave around later. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. It is not that Taylor-Demerson is a bad player; it is that the Packers had louder needs to answer first.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the Round 1 slot they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 JC Latham
They barely believed it either: JC Latham still on the board at the 41st pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick63 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in Round 2, Pick 31 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in No. 88 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick91 Rnd3 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at safety with quarterback and interior defensive lineman open.
Pick94 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
They took Brenden Rice at par in slot 94, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick124 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
A straight-up fair deal on Isaac Guerendo at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Josh Newton
Josh Newton at slot 126 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick169 Rnd5 Braiden McGregor
Braiden McGregor at pick 169 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick202 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
JD Bertrand in Round 6, Pick 27 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick219 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
Steal is underselling it; Johnny Dixon at the 219th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jackson Sirmon
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jackson Sirmon. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick255 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
Brevyn Spann-Ford at pick No. 255 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
