Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueD- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Packers fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Fred Davis in slot 237, a good 127 spots before the room expected him. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Paul Jr..

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Shemar Stewart
In Round 1, Pick 30 they get a disruptor off the edge, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
A big swing on Azareye'h Thomas at pick No. 54, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jordan Burch
Jordan Burch in the 62nd overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick87 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
They jumped the gun on Elic Ayomanor, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick122 Rnd4 Chris Paul Jr.
Chris Paul Jr. at the 122nd pick is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick158 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at pick 158 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick196 Rnd6 Fentrell Cypress II
Fentrell Cypress II at No. 196 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick237 Rnd7 Fred Davis
A wild overpay on Fred Davis in the 237th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick250 Rnd7 Turner Corcoran
They reached a country mile for Turner Corcoran at slot 250, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
