Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Packers.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Packers spent Round 5, Pick 32 on Tanor Bortolini, a name most had 49 spots down the list.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Gore Jr. falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In pick No. 25 they get a ballhawk on the outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on T'Vondre Sweat. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick58 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper slid further than he should have, and the Round 2 slot is lovely value for the linebacker. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick88 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
No drama and no debate, Marshawn Kneeland went about where he belonged in the 88th overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick91 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson at pick 91 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick127 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
A quiet steal in the 127th pick: Cole Bishop for less than the market said. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick168 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini at the Round 5 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick204 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield in the 204th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick216 Rnd6 KT Leveston
They reached into another round for KT Leveston, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick243 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
You do not let a running back like Frank Gore Jr. reach slot 243 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick251 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at pick 251 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
