Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Packers for Wilson: B.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Packers came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

The Williams pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, running back and other spots. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

They banked enough surplus on Wilson to cover a lot of smaller sins. Every board in the league had Puni lower, and that gap is the story.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the 30th overall pick they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Fair-plus on Jordan Morgan, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick58 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at pick No. 58 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick70 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
A reach for Michael Hall Jr. in pick 70; a little patience would have been rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick72 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni at the 72nd pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick95 Rnd3 Cole Bishop
They paid a round early for Cole Bishop in No. 95, more than the board wanted. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick104 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Khyree Jackson in slot 104. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick111 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at the Round 4 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick126 Rnd4 James Williams
A surprising call. With quarterback, running back and other spots still to address, they spent Round 4, Pick 26 on James Williams, a linebacker they were not short of.
Pick128 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones at the 128th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick138 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
The board had cheaper options than Justin Eboigbe at pick 138, and it noticed. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick144 Rnd5 Johnny Wilson
Taking Johnny Wilson in No. 144 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick154 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kitan Oladapo. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick169 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
A premium they did not need to pay, Ty'Ron Hopper a notch or two before his time. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
