Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Packers: B-.

The Sam Hartman selection is the head-turner. The Packers reached 40 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Smith.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the 25th pick they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They paid sticker price for T'Vondre Sweat in the 41st overall pick, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick58 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 58 with a little surplus value in Ruke Orhorhoro. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick88 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at pick 88 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
They reached into another round for Cedric Gray, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick127 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Nothing to complain about; Javon Foster went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick168 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Tykee Smith in the 168th pick, plain and simple. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick204 Rnd6 Daequan Hardy
Daequan Hardy in the Round 6 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor in slot 216 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick243 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman in Round 7, Pick 23 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick251 Rnd7 Zion Logue
Zion Logue at pick No. 251 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
