Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in Round 6, Pick 27: the Packers steal Liufau and grade out a B.

The board owed the Packers one, and it paid up: Marist Liufau, the No. 166 name on the board, sitting there at pick 202 like a gift left on the doorstep. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. The Hicks pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher, quarterback and other spots still on the board.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 JC Latham
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a long-term starter on the line, outstanding value to boot.
Pick41 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell at pick 41 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick58 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
Cooper DeJean at No. 58 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick88 Rnd3 Renardo Green
Renardo Green in the Round 3 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Jaden Hicks in pick No. 91 leaves edge rusher, quarterback and other spots for later.
Pick126 Rnd4 Ray Davis
Ray Davis at the 126th pick is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick169 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at the 169th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick202 Rnd6 Marist Liufau
They robbed the room for Marist Liufau here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick219 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
No edge and no loss on JD Bertrand in No. 219; it is a wash and a sensible one. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick245 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in Round 7, Pick 25 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick255 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Circle this one: Edefuan Ulofoshio at pick No. 255 is a fall that decides a draft. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
