Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Packers: B.

The Packers spent real capital to be 88 picks early on LJ Johnson Jr., and the board is going to hold them to it.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They banked enough surplus on Smith to cover a lot of smaller sins.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick54 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Olaivavega Ioane in the 54th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick88 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange is a better player than slot 88 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick98 Rnd3 Carter Smith
Carter Smith in the 98th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick99 Rnd3 Daylen Everette
Daylen Everette in pick 99 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick120 Rnd4 Eli Raridon
Eli Raridon at Round 4, Pick 20 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick124 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
DeMonte Capehart at the Round 4 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick127 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at pick 127 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick158 Rnd5 Pat Coogan
They paid a round early for Pat Coogan in slot 158, more than the board wanted. It fills a real need, too.
Pick199 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
A straight-up fair deal on Trey Zuhn III at the 199th pick, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick236 Rnd7 Tony Rojas
Tony Rojas at pick No. 236 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick254 Rnd7 LJ Johnson Jr.
A real head-scratcher, LJ Johnson Jr. in No. 254 is miles ahead of his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick257 Rnd7 Jalil Farooq
They let Jalil Farooq come to them and pounced at the Round 7 slot. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
