Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Packers: B-.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Garrett Nelson at slot 219 is 103 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The Gore Jr. value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The Bullard pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, wide receiver and other spots.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
In pick No. 25 they get a load in the middle. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Calen Bullock
A straight-up fair deal on Calen Bullock at No. 41, value and slot in agreement. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick57 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at Round 2, Pick 25 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick88 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A quiet steal in pick 88: Cooper Beebe for less than the market said. The roster fit checks out.
Pick91 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback, wide receiver and other spots to take Javon Bullard, a safety that was not the priority.
Pick125 Rnd4 DJ James
Value with a capital V on DJ James in the 125th pick, a genuine coup. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick135 Rnd4 Grayson Murphy
They left a pile of value on the table to take Grayson Murphy this early at the Round 4 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick203 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in pick No. 203 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick217 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
A big swing on Dwight McGlothern at pick 217, well ahead of any board in the building. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick219 Rnd6 Garrett Nelson
Garrett Nelson at the 219th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick246 Rnd7 Aaron Lewis
Aaron Lewis in slot 246 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
