Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B+
ValueA NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Packers let Jackson fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

The Packers spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Donovan Jackson, the No. 82 name on the board, in Round 6, Pick 22. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In the 27th overall pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick54 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams at No. 54 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
They will replay Jayden Higgins at the Round 3 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jack Bech
You do not let a wide receiver like Jack Bech reach slot 91 and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jared Wilson at pick No. 123. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick160 Rnd5 Sai'vion Jones
The board fumbled Sai'vion Jones all the way to the 160th pick, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick200 Rnd6 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in pick 200 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick239 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan in Round 7, Pick 21 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick251 Rnd7 Oronde Gadsden II
They robbed the room for Oronde Gadsden II here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
