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

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Packers shredded theirs for Aaron Frost. He came off 30 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Clark steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

It is not that Williams is a bad player; it is that the Packers had louder needs to answer first. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Chop Robinson in pick 41. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in slot 57 is fair value, right on his grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick88 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
No drama and no debate, Bucky Irving went about where he belonged in the 88th overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91 Rnd3 Max Melton
A real head-scratcher, Max Melton in No. 91 is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick125 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop at Round 4, Pick 25 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick135 Rnd4 James Williams
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback, tight end and other spots to take James Williams, a safety that was not the priority.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
A straight-up fair deal on Jawhar Jordan at Round 6, Pick 28, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick217 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
A tidy bit of business in the 217th overall pick, where De'Corian Clark graded well above the range. It fills a real need, too.
Pick219 Rnd6 Aaron Frost
They talked themselves into Aaron Frost at the 219th pick, and the board did not agree. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick246 Rnd7 Trey Wedig
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Trey Wedig well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
