Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Packers won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Packers would have aced it. McCallan Castles at Round 7, Pick 25 is 97 spots clear of where he belonged. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.

The Davis steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson at the 27th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton is a better player than pick 41 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick58 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
They read the board right and Chris Braswell was the payoff at No. 58. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick88 Rnd3 Max Melton
Max Melton in the 88th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
A conviction pick on Braelon Allen at slot 91 that the board grades a round light. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick126 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
No edge and no loss on Johnny Wilson in Round 4, Pick 26; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick138 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
They paid sticker price for Tommy Eichenberg in Round 5, Pick 2, and that is fine. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick169 Rnd5 Layden Robinson
Layden Robinson in pick 169 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick202 Rnd6 Isaiah Davis
Circle this one: Isaiah Davis at pick No. 202 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jaden Crumedy
By-the-book stuff, Jaden Crumedy at slot 219 squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick245 Rnd7 McCallan Castles
They talked themselves into McCallan Castles at the 245th pick, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick255 Rnd7 Myles Harden
They will replay Myles Harden at No. 255 for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
