Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Packers.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Dylan McMahon, 48 picks early at the 216th overall pick. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The Kinchens pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback and wide receiver.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the 25th overall pick they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 Junior Colson
They jumped the gun on Junior Colson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jaden Hicks
They went early on Jaden Hicks in No. 58, and the value did not follow. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick88 Rnd3 Kamren Kinchens
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Kamren Kinchens while clear needs at quarterback and wide receiver sat open.
Pick91 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul in the Round 3 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick127 Rnd4 Fabien Lovett
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Fabien Lovett. It fills a real need, too.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
They reached a country mile for Jaylan Ford at pick No. 168, and the board is aghast. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick204 Rnd6 Tanner McLachlan
Tanner McLachlan at slot 204 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick216 Rnd6 Dylan McMahon
They talked themselves into Dylan McMahon at the 216th overall pick, and the board did not agree. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick243 Rnd7 Eyabi Okie-Anoma
Value said wait; Eyabi Okie-Anoma in the 243rd pick says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jaden Shirden
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jaden Shirden this early at Round 7, Pick 31. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
