Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesC+ FutureB
The Packers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

For all the boxes ticked, the Packers skipped the loudest one: quarterback is exactly as bare as it was. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

They will need Bortolini to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The Flournoy pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the 25th overall pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value.
Pick49 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
Fair-plus on Javon Bullard, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick58 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
A straight-up fair deal on Payton Wilson at the 58th pick, value and slot in agreement. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick88 Rnd3 Gabriel Murphy
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Gabriel Murphy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni in pick 91 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick115 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
They paid sticker price for Elijah Jones in Round 4, Pick 15, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick126 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
By-the-book stuff, Isaac Guerendo at slot 126 squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini at the Round 5 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick202 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson in pick No. 202 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick219 Rnd6 Ryan Flournoy
They read the board right and Ryan Flournoy was the payoff at pick 219. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick245 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
No edge and no loss on Josh Proctor in the Round 7 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick255 Rnd7 Marcellas Dial
Marcellas Dial is a better player than No. 255 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
