Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Packers.

The Packers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick No. 219 on Solomon Byrd a full 38 spots early.

Landing Jackson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In slot 25 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They paid up for Edgerrin Cooper at No. 41 when waiting would have done the job. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick58 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
They let Chris Braswell come to them and pounced at the 58th pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick88 Rnd3 Max Melton
The board had Max Melton higher than pick No. 88, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Nice patience on Mike Sainristil, who had no business lasting to pick 91. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Beau Brade
Beau Brade in Round 4, Pick 26 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick169 Rnd5 Dillon Johnson
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dillon Johnson. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jha'Quan Jackson
Jha'Quan Jackson in pick 202 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick219 Rnd6 Solomon Byrd
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Solomon Byrd. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Trevin Wallace at the 245th pick is the proof. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick255 Rnd7 Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight at the 255th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
