Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Packers a B-.

The Packers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 245 on Sam Hartman a full 38 spots early.

Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Landing Tampa that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tyler Guyton
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a long-term starter on the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson in the 41st overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick58 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
They let T.J. Tampa come to them and pounced at No. 58. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick88 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in the Round 3 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick91 Rnd3 Audric Estime
The board had cheaper options than Audric Estime at pick 91, and it noticed. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick125 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tykee Smith this early at pick No. 125. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in slot 168 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick201 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
They took Nathaniel Watson at par in pick No. 201, which is nothing to complain about. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick219 Rnd6 Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones at Round 6, Pick 44 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick245 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
A big swing on Sam Hartman at No. 245, well ahead of any board in the building. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick255 Rnd7 Jalen Coker
Jalen Coker in pick 255 is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
