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

The Packers went off the board in a big way for Patrick Payton, 52 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

Getting Slaughter where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick55 Rnd2 Brandon Cisse
Circle this one: Brandon Cisse at No. 55 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick84 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
Taking Jake Slaughter in pick No. 84 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick85 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
A.J. Haulcy at the Round 3 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick120 Rnd4 Chris McClellan
They jumped the gun on Chris McClellan, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The roster fit checks out.
Pick126 Rnd4 Tacario Davis
A slide stopped in the 126th overall pick, with Tacario Davis worth more than the price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick137 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
No drama and no debate, DeMonte Capehart went about where he belonged in the 137th pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick158 Rnd5 Patrick Payton
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Patrick Payton well ahead of where he belonged. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick199 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
They went early on Trey Zuhn III in No. 199, and the value did not follow. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick236 Rnd7 Will Kacmarek
Will Kacmarek at the 236th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick254 Rnd7 Rueben Owens II
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Rueben Owens II. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick257 Rnd7 Jalil Farooq
They took Jalil Farooq at par in the Round 7 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
