Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Packers a B-.

Of all the ways to open, the Packers chose the head-scratcher, spending No. 91 on Cade Stover with edge rusher, quarterback and other spots still wide open. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They are betting Jones proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Calen Bullock
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Calen Bullock. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in pick 57 is fair value, right on his grade. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick88 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Christian Mahogany at No. 88 is the proof. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick91 Rnd3 Cade Stover
A want over a need in the Round 3 slot: Cade Stover adds a TE-EDGE while edge rusher, quarterback and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
A clean, defensible pick in the 126th pick with a little surplus value in Kris Abrams-Draine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick168 Rnd5 Edefuan Ulofoshio
They read the board right and Edefuan Ulofoshio was the payoff at the 168th overall pick. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick203 Rnd6 Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal in slot 203 lands just on the right side of the ledger. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick216 Rnd6 Omar Speights
Omar Speights at pick No. 216 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick243 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
A conviction pick on Matthew Jones at Round 7, Pick 23 that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick251 Rnd7 Maurice Smith
They jumped the gun on Maurice Smith, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
