Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Packers: B-.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Packers spent No. 245 on Sam Hartman, a name most had 38 spots down the list. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The Rosemy-Jacksaint value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In pick No. 25 they get juice off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell at the 41st pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick58 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Edgerrin Cooper at slot 58 is the proof. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick88 Rnd3 Javon Foster
They left a pile of value on the table to take Javon Foster this early at the Round 3 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Audric Estime
They paid up for Audric Estime at the 91st overall pick when waiting would have done the job. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick126 Rnd4 Trevor Keegan
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Trevor Keegan. It fills a real need, too.
Pick169 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Nothing to complain about; Luke McCaffrey went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick202 Rnd6 Myles Harden
Somehow Myles Harden was still sitting there in the 202nd overall pick, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick219 Rnd6 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in pick 219 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick245 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
They talked themselves into Sam Hartman at Round 7, Pick 25, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick255 Rnd7 Dominique Hampton
By-the-book stuff, Dominique Hampton at the Round 7 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
