Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Packers.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Packers would have aced it. Logan Lee at No. 216 is 23 spots clear of where he belonged.

The Green pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with quarterback, wide receiver and other spots still on the board. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In pick 25 they get a lockdown presence outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins in the 41st overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick58 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
They jumped the gun on Ruke Orhorhoro, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick88 Rnd3 Cole Bishop
A real head-scratcher, Cole Bishop in slot 88 is miles ahead of his ranking. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick94 Rnd3 Renardo Green
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Renardo Green adds a safety and leaves quarterback, wide receiver and other spots untouched.
Pick127 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at the 127th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick168 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
A reach for Ty'Ron Hopper in the Round 5 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick204 Rnd6 Daijun Edwards
They took Daijun Edwards at par in pick 204, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick216 Rnd6 Logan Lee
They reached into another round for Logan Lee, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick243 Rnd7 KT Leveston
Good price on KT Leveston in pick No. 243, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick251 Rnd7 C.J. Hanson
C.J. Hanson at the 251st overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
