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

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Matthew Jones at the Round 6 slot is 30 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Clark. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Bralen Trice
In No. 25 they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Byron Murphy II
Byron Murphy II at pick 41 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
Jonathon Brooks in slot 57 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick88 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Nothing to complain about; Mike Sainristil went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick92 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
They paid sticker price for Tykee Smith in pick No. 92, and that is fine. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick125 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
A real head-scratcher, Braelon Allen in Round 4, Pick 25 is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick135 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
A tidy bit of business in No. 135, where Jarrian Jones graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick203 Rnd6 Matthew Jones
This one needs a full-page explanation: Matthew Jones in the 203rd overall pick, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick217 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
They will replay De'Corian Clark at slot 217 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick219 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
A straight-up fair deal on Steele Chambers at Round 6, Pick 44, value and slot in agreement. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick246 Rnd7 DeMonte Capehart
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for DeMonte Capehart. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
