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

The board owed the Packers one, and it paid up: Luke McCaffrey, the No. 149 name on the board, sitting there at the Round 6 slot like a gift left on the doorstep. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The Laube reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The Gray pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Amarius Mims at No. 32 is the proof. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
The board had cheaper options than Edgerrin Cooper at the Round 2 slot, and it noticed. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright in the 58th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick88 Rnd3 Adisa Isaac
Circle this one: Adisa Isaac at slot 88 is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick90 Rnd3 Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro in the 90th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick91 Rnd3 Max Melton
Max Melton slid further than he should have, and pick No. 91 is lovely value for the cornerback. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick93 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
A slide stopped in pick 93, with Jaden Hicks worth more than the price. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick94 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
A straight-up fair deal on Christian Mahogany at Round 3, Pick 31, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick95 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went linebacker with Cedric Gray while clear needs at quarterback sat open.
Pick126 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
They paid a round early for Roger Rosengarten in No. 126, more than the board wanted. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick130 Rnd4 Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube at pick No. 130 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick169 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd in the 169th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick186 Rnd6 Luke McCaffrey
They will replay Luke McCaffrey at the 186th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick202 Rnd6 Tip Reiman
A tight end of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick219 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
They robbed the room for Johnny Dixon here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jackson Mitchell
Jackson Mitchell at Round 7, Pick 25 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick255 Rnd7 Ryan Watts
No edge and no loss on Ryan Watts in pick 255; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
