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

You build a draft on nights like this. Jalon Walker had no business being available in the Round 2 slot, and the Packers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. No fireworks, but a solid B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Every board in the league had Hamilton lower, and that gap is the story.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In pick No. 30 they get a No. 1 receiver, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
A linebacker of that caliber at the 54th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick62 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in No. 62 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick87 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
They read the board right and Tate Ratledge was the payoff at slot 87. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick124 Rnd4 Tory Horton
A tidy bit of business in Round 4, Pick 22, where Tory Horton graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick198 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at the 198th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The roster fit checks out.
Pick237 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
Ty Hamilton in pick 237 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick250 Rnd7 Phil Mafah
They will replay Phil Mafah at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
