Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureC-
The phones sank the Packers this weekend: C-.

The Packers clearly saw something nobody else did in Eric O'Neill, taking him 50 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Landing Banks that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick43 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks slipping to the 43rd overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick52 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon in pick 52 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick84 Rnd3 Malik Muhammad
Malik Muhammad slid further than he should have, and the Round 3 slot is lovely value for the cornerback. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick120 Rnd4 Xavier Scott
Xavier Scott at pick No. 120 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick158 Rnd5 Eric O'Neill
Eric O'Neill at No. 158 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick199 Rnd6 Desmond Reid
They paid sticker price for Desmond Reid in Round 6, Pick 20, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick236 Rnd7 PJ Williams
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and PJ Williams at pick No. 236 is the proof. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick254 Rnd7 Jalil Farooq
The board had Jalil Farooq higher than the Round 7 slot, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick257 Rnd7 Raymond Cottrell
A tidy bit of business in the 257th overall pick, where Raymond Cottrell graded well above the range. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
