Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers cashed the board's mistake on Flournoy: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Ryan Flournoy had no business being available in Round 7, Pick 35, and the Packers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

The Tagovailoa reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jared Verse
Jared Verse in Round 1, Pick 25 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton at the 41st pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick58 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
They did well to land Braden Fiske in the 58th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick88 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Good price on Calen Bullock in slot 88, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick91 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum in pick No. 91 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick126 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Cedric Gray in No. 126. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
A quiet steal in the Round 5 slot: Tykee Smith for less than the market said. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick202 Rnd6 Javontae Jean-Baptiste
Javontae Jean-Baptiste at pick 202 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick219 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon in pick No. 219 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick245 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Taulia Tagovailoa well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick255 Rnd7 Ryan Flournoy
Ryan Flournoy in pick 255 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
