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

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Jeremy James at pick 219, a reach of 23 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

They will answer for taking safety early while cornerback, wide receiver and other spots went begging. The Jurkovec steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
A quiet steal in Round 2, Pick 9: Tyler Nubin for less than the market said. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
No drama and no debate, Jonathon Brooks went about where he belonged in No. 58. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick92 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick 92 on Tykee Smith with cornerback, wide receiver and other spots unsolved.
Pick125 Rnd4 Drake Nugent
They reached a country mile for Drake Nugent at the 125th pick, and the board is aghast. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick135 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
They jumped the gun on Braelon Allen, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick163 Rnd5 Austin Booker
Austin Booker at Round 5, Pick 27 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick203 Rnd6 Erick All
They took Erick All at par in the 203rd overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick217 Rnd6 Eric Gentry
Eric Gentry at the 217th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jeremy James
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jeremy James in pick No. 219, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick246 Rnd7 Phil Jurkovec
They will replay Phil Jurkovec at slot 246 for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
