Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The war room fell hard for Cody Schrader, and it showed at No. 126: 49 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

Getting Dixon where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

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

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick 25 they get a weapon on the perimeter, and a steal at that.
Pick41 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell at pick No. 41 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens at No. 58 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick88 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany at the 88th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Javon Foster
This one needs a full-page explanation: Javon Foster in slot 91, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick126 Rnd4 Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader at the Round 4 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick169 Rnd5 Marist Liufau
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 5 slot with a little surplus value in Marist Liufau. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick202 Rnd6 Javontae Jean-Baptiste
Javontae Jean-Baptiste in pick No. 202 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick219 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
You do not let a cornerback like Johnny Dixon reach No. 219 and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick245 Rnd7 Bub Means
By-the-book stuff, Bub Means at slot 245 squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick255 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Sam Hartman. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
