Gus DRAFTING FOR THEPackers

Draft Grade — Packers

Grand theft in the 84th pick: the Packers steal Ponds and grade out a B-. The rest of the league will want that one back. D'Angelo Ponds tumbling to the Packers in the 84th overall pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about.
For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. Orange has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick52
Rnd2
Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange in pick 52 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick84
Rnd3
D'Angelo Ponds
They will replay D'Angelo Ponds at the 84th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick120
Rnd4
Parker Brailsford
Parker Brailsford at slot 120 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick158
Rnd5
Davison Igbinosun
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 5 slot with a little surplus value in Davison Igbinosun. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick199
Rnd6
Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III at pick No. 199 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick236
Rnd7
Dominic Zvada
A straight-up fair deal on Dominic Zvada at Round 7, Pick 20, value and slot in agreement. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick254
Rnd7
Jordan Hall
They took Jordan Hall at par in the 254th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick257
Rnd7
Kendrick Law
Kendrick Law in No. 257 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
