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

The Packers put a flag in the ground for Ja'Had Carter, 37 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took All.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a ballhawk on the outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Value with a capital V on Tyler Nubin in the 41st pick, a genuine coup. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick57 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Nothing to complain about; Kingsley Suamataia went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick88 Rnd3 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at the Round 3 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick91 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
Nice patience on Roman Wilson, who had no business lasting to pick 91. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick125 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
A tidy little value on Kris Abrams-Draine in No. 125, a step better than break-even. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick135 Rnd4 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at the 135th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick203 Rnd6 Ja'Had Carter
They talked themselves into Ja'Had Carter at the Round 6 slot, and the board did not agree. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick217 Rnd6 Carson Steele
Carson Steele at Round 6, Pick 42 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick219 Rnd6 Erick All
They let Erick All come to them and pounced at slot 219. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick246 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
Fair-plus on Eric Gentry, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
