Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The tape said wait; the Packers did not. Dallas Gant went at the Round 7 slot, a good 61 picks before the board was ready. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. The Beebe pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In No. 25 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin at pick No. 41 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in the 58th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick88 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in Round 3, Pick 25 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick91 Rnd3 Isaac Guerendo
They reached into another round for Isaac Guerendo, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones at slot 127 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick168 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at pick 168 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick204 Rnd6 Marcellas Dial
A big swing on Marcellas Dial at the Round 6 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick216 Rnd6 Tanner McLachlan
No edge and no loss on Tanner McLachlan in the 216th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick243 Rnd7 Dallas Gant
They talked themselves into Dallas Gant at No. 243, and the board did not agree. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick251 Rnd7 Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal at Round 7, Pick 31 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
