Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Packers: B-.

It is a puzzling start. The Packers had quarterback, wide receiver and other spots to solve and reached instead for James Williams, a safety, at the 135th pick. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. However the rest shakes out, Jones at that price is a win they earned.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tyler Nubin
In the Round 1 slot they get a rangy last line of defense at fair value. More want than need.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins at slot 41 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
They took Jonathon Brooks at par in the 57th pick, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick88 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at pick 88 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau in Round 3, Pick 28 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick125 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster in No. 125 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick135 Rnd4 James Williams
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. James Williams in the Round 4 slot leaves quarterback, wide receiver and other spots for later.
Pick203 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
No edge and no loss on Tanor Bortolini in the 203rd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick217 Rnd6 Brevyn Spann-Ford
A straight-up fair deal on Brevyn Spann-Ford at pick No. 217, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick219 Rnd6 Myles Jones
Myles Jones slipping to the 219th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick246 Rnd7 Ja'Had Carter
A clean, defensible pick in Round 7, Pick 26 with a little surplus value in Ja'Had Carter. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
