Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedC TradesC+ FutureB
Good, not great, for the Packers: B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Packers took AJ Green at Round 5, Pick 36, roughly 50 spots before his name belonged. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

Washington at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

The Hill pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with quarterback and wide receiver still on the board.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick53 Rnd2 A'Mauri Washington
Steal is underselling it; A'Mauri Washington at the Round 2 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick98 Rnd3 Anthonie Knapp
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Anthonie Knapp in the 98th pick, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick105 Rnd4 Jyaire Hill
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the 105th overall pick on Jyaire Hill with quarterback and wide receiver unsolved.
Pick112 Rnd4 Brice Pollock
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went cornerback with Brice Pollock while clear needs at quarterback and wide receiver sat open.
Pick122 Rnd4 Zereoue Williams
The board had cheaper options than Zereoue Williams at No. 122, and it noticed. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick159 Rnd5 Hollywood Smothers
Hollywood Smothers at pick 159 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster logic is harder to follow.
Pick173 Rnd5 Brandon Baker
Value with a capital V on Brandon Baker in pick 173, a genuine coup. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick175 Rnd5 AJ Green
AJ Green at the Round 5 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jordan Marshall
Jordan Marshall in slot 200 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
Pick215 Rnd6 Brody Foley
They paid a round early for Brody Foley in the 215th overall pick, more than the board wanted. A fine player at a spot low on the priority list.
Pick225 Rnd7 Benjamin Brahmer
They paid up for Benjamin Brahmer at the 225th pick when waiting would have done the job. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
Pick241 Rnd7 Devon Jackson
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Devon Jackson. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
