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

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Packers started one anyway for Junior Colson, 37 picks ahead of schedule. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Arnold falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Bralen Trice
In Round 1, Pick 19 they get a premier pass rusher. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick40 Rnd2 Terrion Arnold
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Terrion Arnold in pick 40. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick51 Rnd2 Trey Benson
A reach on Trey Benson in pick No. 51; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick83 Rnd3 Junior Colson
They reached into another round for Junior Colson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick88 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
A tidy little value on McKinnley Jackson in the 88th pick, a step better than break-even. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick119 Rnd4 Seth McLaughlin
A straight-up fair deal on Seth McLaughlin at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick135 Rnd4 Mike Sainristil
A premium they did not need to pay, Mike Sainristil a notch or two before his time. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
