Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Packers a B-.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Packers shredded theirs for Tanner McLachlan. He came off 47 spots early, and the room will hear about it. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

Wright at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They will answer for taking linebacker early while edge rusher, quarterback and other spots went begging.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In pick No. 25 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Troy Franklin at the 41st pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
By-the-book stuff, Edgerrin Cooper at slot 57 squarely in line with his ranking. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick88 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Cooper Beebe in the Round 3 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick91 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
They bypassed pressing needs at edge rusher, quarterback and other spots to take Marist Liufau, a linebacker that was not the priority.
Pick126 Rnd4 Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki at pick 126 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick168 Rnd5 Renardo Green
A quiet steal in slot 168: Renardo Green for less than the market said. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright in Round 6, Pick 28 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick216 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
A wild overpay on Trevor Keegan in the 216th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick243 Rnd7 Tanner McLachlan
A big swing on Tanner McLachlan at pick No. 243, well ahead of any board in the building. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jontrey Hunter
They read the board right and Jontrey Hunter was the payoff at pick 251. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
