Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Packers.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Braelon Allen, 33 picks early at pick 126. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. They banked enough surplus on Simpson to cover a lot of smaller sins.

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

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
A straight-up fair deal on Troy Fautanu at No. 25, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at the 41st pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick57 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard in slot 57 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick88 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
No edge and no loss on Michael Hall Jr. in pick No. 88; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick91 Rnd3 Darius Robinson
They reached a country mile for Darius Robinson at the Round 3 slot, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick126 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
They reached into another round for Braelon Allen, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Nice patience on Jaylin Simpson, who had no business lasting to slot 168. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick203 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Christian Jones. It fills a real need, too.
Pick216 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
Nothing to complain about; De'Corian Clark went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick243 Rnd7 Myles Jones
A quiet steal in Round 7, Pick 23: Myles Jones for less than the market said. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick251 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
A reasonable price with a little left over, Steele Chambers in pick No. 251. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
