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

The tape said wait; the Packers did not. Matthew Jones went at Round 6, Pick 41, a good 44 picks before the board was ready. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The Arnold steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Dallas Turner in slot 25. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick41 Rnd2 Terrion Arnold
Terrion Arnold at pick No. 41 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick57 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
A reach on Ruke Orhorhoro in No. 57; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jaden Hicks. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick91 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
No drama and no debate, Sedrick Van Pran went about where he belonged in pick 91. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick126 Rnd4 Will Shipley
Will Shipley at Round 4, Pick 26 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
A real head-scratcher, Jordan Jefferson in the 168th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick203 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick216 Rnd6 Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones in Round 6, Pick 41 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick251 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
Good price on Taulia Tagovailoa in pick 251, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
