Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesB FutureB-
The Packers robbed the room for Gould. Final grade: B.

The board owed the Packers one, and it paid up: Anthony Gould, the No. 142 name on the board, sitting there at pick 202 like a gift left on the doorstep. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Cooper has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 JC Latham
In the 21st pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at the Round 2 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick67 Rnd3 T'Vondre Sweat
Steal is underselling it; T'Vondre Sweat at pick 67 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick88 Rnd3 Kamren Kinchens
The board fumbled Kamren Kinchens all the way to slot 88, and they scooped it up. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick100 Rnd3 DJ James
Circle this one: DJ James at No. 100 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick126 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster in Round 4, Pick 26 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick169 Rnd5 James Williams
Taking James Williams in the 169th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick184 Rnd6 Cody Schrader
The board had Cody Schrader higher than pick No. 184, and the running back fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick202 Rnd6 Anthony Gould
They will replay Anthony Gould at slot 202 for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick219 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Somehow Kamal Hadden was still sitting there in pick No. 219, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick245 Rnd7 Keaton Bills
Keaton Bills in Round 7, Pick 25 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick255 Rnd7 Myles Harden
Myles Harden in the 255th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
