Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Packers: B-.

The Packers' one glaring miss is edge rusher, a need they left exactly as they found it.

The Bishop reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In slot 25 they get an island corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They went early on Edgerrin Cooper in the 41st pick, and the value did not follow. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick88 Rnd3 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop in Round 3, Pick 25 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick91 Rnd3 Trey Benson
A clean, defensible pick in pick 91 with a little surplus value in Trey Benson. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick126 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ben Sinnott. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
