Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesD+ FutureB-
Some hits, some head-scratchers, and a C+ for the Packers.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Packers took John Emery Jr. at slot 243, roughly 160 spots before his name belonged. The final tally is a middling C+.

With edge rusher, quarterback and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on DT-EDGE is the choice that costs them. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In No. 25 they get a sticky cover corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
A straight-up fair deal on Tyler Guyton at Round 2, Pick 5, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick58 Rnd2 Trey Benson
Trey Benson in the 58th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick69 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at pick 69 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick88 Rnd3 Maason Smith
A surprising call. With edge rusher, quarterback and other spots still to address, they spent the Round 3 slot on Maason Smith, a DT-EDGE they were not short of.
Pick91 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
The board had cheaper options than Khyree Jackson at the 91st pick, and it noticed. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick168 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
A slide stopped in pick No. 168, with Ty'Ron Hopper worth more than the price. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick204 Rnd6 Hunter Nourzad
They reached into another round for Hunter Nourzad, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick216 Rnd6 Bub Means
Somehow Bub Means was still sitting there in the 216th overall pick, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick243 Rnd7 John Emery Jr.
John Emery Jr. at Round 7, Pick 23 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick251 Rnd7 Anim Dankwah
Anim Dankwah slid further than he should have, and pick 251 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. A need, and now a little less of one.
