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

Some picks age like wine; Cedric Gray at the Round 3 slot will need to, sitting 43 spots clear of his grade. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

However the rest shakes out, Clark at that price is a win they earned. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In slot 25 they get a double-digit-sack hope, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
Value said wait; Javon Bullard in the 41st pick says they were not listening. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick57 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
They barely believed it either: T.J. Tampa still on the board at No. 57. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick88 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A conviction pick on Dominick Puni at the Round 3 slot that the board grades a round light. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick91 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at pick No. 91 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick126 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at the 126th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jaylen Wright
Good price on Jaylen Wright in Round 5, Pick 32, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick203 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
A quiet steal in pick 203: Josh Proctor for less than the market said. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick216 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones slipping to No. 216 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick243 Rnd7 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark in pick No. 243 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick251 Rnd7 Tanner McLachlan
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tanner McLachlan this early at the 251st pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
