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

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Packers shredded theirs for Maurice Smith. He came off 28 spots early, and the room will hear about it. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tyler Nubin
In the 25th overall pick they get an enforcer at safety at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick41 Rnd2 Byron Murphy II
Byron Murphy II in No. 41 is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick57 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Adisa Isaac. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick88 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in pick No. 88 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick91 Rnd3 Audric Estime
Audric Estime at pick 91 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick125 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
They paid sticker price for Tommy Eichenberg in the 125th pick, and that is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick135 Rnd4 Javion Cohen
A reach for Javion Cohen in slot 135; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick203 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A reasonable price with a little left over, Christian Jones in the 203rd pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick217 Rnd6 Maurice Smith
Maurice Smith at pick 217 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick219 Rnd6 Taulia Tagovailoa
Taulia Tagovailoa in the Round 6 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick246 Rnd7 Zion Logue
By-the-book stuff, Zion Logue at pick No. 246 squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
