Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers land in the muddy middle: C+.

The Packers put a flag in the ground for Elijah Simmons, 172 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. The Pearsall value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Javon Bullard
In Round 1, Pick 11 they get a centerfielder for the defense, reach and all. More want than need.
Pick39 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa at pick No. 39 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
They liked Jonathon Brooks enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 2 slot. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at the 75th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick82 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
They paid sticker price for Christian Haynes in slot 82, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick111 Rnd4 Junior Colson
Junior Colson in No. 111 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick135 Rnd4 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at the 135th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick189 Rnd6 Erick All
Erick All at Round 6, Pick 14 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick217 Rnd6 Ricky Pearsall
Nice patience on Ricky Pearsall, who had no business lasting to slot 217. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick219 Rnd6 Kaimon Rucker
They took Kaimon Rucker at par in No. 219, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick232 Rnd7 Elijah Simmons
They reached a country mile for Elijah Simmons at pick No. 232, and the board is aghast. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
