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

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Packers took Collin Oliver a full 101 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Thomas. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The trade work was a quiet net positive.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
A tidy little value on Matthew Golden in pick 18, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick54 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks at slot 54 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick87 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
Taking Azareye'h Thomas in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick124 Rnd4 Jackson Slater
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jackson Slater this early at the 124th pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick149 Rnd5 Barryn Sorrell
Barryn Sorrell in No. 149 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick198 Rnd6 Collin Oliver
Collin Oliver at Round 6, Pick 22 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick234 Rnd7 Xavier Truss
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Xavier Truss. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick237 Rnd7 Amari Kight
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Amari Kight well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick250 Rnd7 Ricky White III
Ricky White III in the Round 7 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
