Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Tanor Bortolini, 63 picks early at slot 126.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. That Milton pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Darius Robinson
In the 25th pick they get a premier pass rusher, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They took Edgerrin Cooper at par in No. 41, which is nothing to complain about. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jaden Hicks
A conviction pick on Jaden Hicks at the 58th overall pick that the board grades a round light. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick88 Rnd3 Cam Hart
They paid a round early for Cam Hart in pick 88, more than the board wanted. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick91 Rnd3 Christian Jones
They reached into another round for Christian Jones, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick126 Rnd4 Tanor Bortolini
A real head-scratcher, Tanor Bortolini in pick No. 126 is miles ahead of his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick169 Rnd5 Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson in the 169th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
A straight-up fair deal on Jared Wiley at pick 202, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick219 Rnd6 Kendall Milton
Kendall Milton at the Round 6 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick245 Rnd7 Rasheen Ali
Rasheen Ali in No. 245 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick255 Rnd7 Ryan Watts
Ryan Watts in the 255th pick is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
