Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Packers.

The Packers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Dominic Zvada at the 257th pick regardless, 46 picks early. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Getting Koziol where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Nothing gained and nothing lost at the table.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Nice patience on Caleb Banks, who had no business lasting to slot 52. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick95 Rnd3 Devin Moore
Devin Moore in No. 95 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick120 Rnd4 Will Lee III
Value with a capital V on Will Lee III in the 120th overall pick, a genuine coup. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick125 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
J.C. Davis in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick158 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at pick 158 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
They let Tanner Koziol come to them and pounced at pick No. 169. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick199 Rnd6 Kaelon Black
A premium they did not need to pay, Kaelon Black a notch or two before his time. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick210 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Trey Zuhn III well ahead of where he belonged. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick236 Rnd7 Cole Payton
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cole Payton. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick254 Rnd7 Kaden Wetjen
Kaden Wetjen at No. 254 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick257 Rnd7 Dominic Zvada
A wild overpay on Dominic Zvada in the Round 7 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
