Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Packers: B-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Garrett Dellinger in pick 250, a good 45 spots before the room expected him.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. However the rest shakes out, Thornton Jr. at that price is a win they earned. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant at No. 23 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at the 54th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick87 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
They paid a round early for Zy Alexander in pick No. 87, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick124 Rnd4 Cody Simon
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cody Simon. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick159 Rnd5 Logan Brown
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Logan Brown in the 159th pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick198 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. is a better player than pick 198 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
Pick237 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
They did well to land Jermari Harris in the 237th pick, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick250 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger at Round 7, Pick 34 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
