Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Packers for Brade: B-.

The Packers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Beau Brade fell into slot 169.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Hardy has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
Cooper DeJean at the 25th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They went early on Edgerrin Cooper in No. 41, and the value did not follow. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick58 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
They paid sticker price for Zach Frazier in pick 58, and that is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick91 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
A tidy bit of business in the Round 3 slot, where Michael Hall Jr. graded well above the range. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick96 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kris Abrams-Draine in Round 3, Pick 33. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick116 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
The board had cheaper options than Isaac Guerendo at slot 116, and it noticed. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick126 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
They took Sataoa Laumea at par in pick No. 126, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick169 Rnd5 Beau Brade
Beau Brade at the 169th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick202 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at pick 202 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick219 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
No drama and no debate, Garret Greenfield went about where he belonged in pick No. 219. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick245 Rnd7 Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau at the Round 7 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick255 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
This one needs a full-page explanation: Daequan Hardy in No. 255, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
