Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers let Pritchett fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

Somebody in the 189th pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Packers sat still while Nehemiah Pritchett, the No. 140 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They are betting Morgan proves the room right and everyone else wrong. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick No. 11 they get a matchup problem out wide. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
A conviction pick on Jordan Morgan at the 39th pick that the board grades a round light. The roster fit checks out.
Pick43 Rnd2 Calen Bullock
By-the-book stuff, Calen Bullock at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick75 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
They paid up for TreVeyon Henderson at slot 75 when waiting would have done the job. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick82 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau in No. 82 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick111 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Nothing to complain about; Cam Hart went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick135 Rnd4 Jordan Travis
A straight-up fair deal on Jordan Travis at the 135th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick189 Rnd6 Nehemiah Pritchett
They robbed the room for Nehemiah Pritchett here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
