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

The Packers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Jase McClellan fell into No. 243. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

Reaching for Logan Jr. left real value on the table behind him. Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In pick No. 25 they get an island corner, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in the 41st pick is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick58 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske in No. 58 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick88 Rnd3 DJ James
DJ James at slot 88 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
Steal is underselling it; Chris Braswell at the Round 3 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick127 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster slipping to pick 127 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick168 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
A slide stopped in the 168th overall pick, with Mason McCormick worth more than the price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick204 Rnd6 Layden Robinson
They barely believed it either: Layden Robinson still on the board at Round 6, Pick 29. The roster fit checks out.
Pick216 Rnd6 Kenny Logan Jr.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kenny Logan Jr. in pick No. 216, miles early. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick243 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
They will replay Jase McClellan at the 243rd overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick251 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman at slot 251 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
