Draft Grade — Packers

Grand theft in No. 168: the Packers steal Smith and grade out a B-.

When a board-topper like Maason Smith slides to pick No. 168, you do not overthink it, and the Packers did not.

The Wright reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the 25th pick they get a sticky cover corner at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A premium they did not need to pay, Jackson Powers-Johnson a notch or two before his time. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick57 Rnd2 Devontez Walker
A tidy bit of business in Round 2, Pick 25, where Devontez Walker graded well above the range. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick88 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Junior Colson at the Round 3 slot. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
They paid up for Jaden Hicks at the 91st overall pick when waiting would have done the job. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright in slot 126 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick168 Rnd5 Maason Smith
A DT-EDGE of that caliber at pick No. 168 is the definition of value, full stop. The roster logic is harder to follow.
Pick203 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in No. 203 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick216 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at the Round 6 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick243 Rnd7 Michael Wiley
Somehow Michael Wiley was still sitting there in pick 243, and they pounced on premier running back value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick251 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
A wild overpay on Dwight McGlothern in slot 251, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
