Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
The Packers let Harden fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Packers were there to profit. Myles Harden, the No. 209 name on the board, should have been long gone before slot 255.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball. The phones were busy but the ledger stayed level.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
A straight-up fair deal on Cooper DeJean at slot 26, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick41 Rnd2 Graham Barton
The board had Graham Barton higher than the 41st pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick58 Rnd2 Junior Colson
Nothing to complain about; Junior Colson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in Round 3, Pick 25 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick91 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum at the Round 3 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick126 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
They took Johnny Wilson at par in No. 126, which is nothing to complain about. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick169 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at the 169th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick202 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
A tidy little value on Curtis Jacobs in pick 202, a step better than break-even. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick219 Rnd6 Julian Pearl
A slide stopped in the 219th pick, with Julian Pearl worth more than the price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick220 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon at pick 220 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jordan Magee
They will replay Jordan Magee at pick No. 245 for years; that is how good the value is. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick255 Rnd7 Myles Harden
Myles Harden in the Round 7 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
