Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The war room fell hard for Tahj Washington, and it showed at pick No. 246: 116 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

That is a running back worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In slot 25 they get a ballhawk on the outside, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
Fair-plus on Chop Robinson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick57 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at the 57th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick88 Rnd3 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson in No. 88 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91 Rnd3 Tyler Davis
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tyler Davis. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick125 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
They talked themselves into Ben Sinnott at the 125th pick, and the board did not agree. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick135 Rnd4 Christian Jones
A big swing on Christian Jones at No. 135, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
Pick203 Rnd6 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at slot 203 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd6 Charles Turner III
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Charles Turner III. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jaden Shirden
Jaden Shirden in pick 219 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick246 Rnd7 Tahj Washington
They reached a country mile for Tahj Washington at pick No. 246, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
