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

The Packers spent real capital to be 97 picks early on John Emery Jr., and the board is going to hold them to it.

That Mahogany pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The back end got a real overhaul.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 25th overall pick they get a ballhawk on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
Fair-plus on Kamren Kinchens, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at the 57th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick88 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
No drama and no debate, McKinnley Jackson went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 25. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Taking Brenden Rice in slot 91 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick125 Rnd4 Christian Mahogany
They will replay Christian Mahogany at pick No. 125 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick135 Rnd4 Jaylen Wright
A real head-scratcher, Jaylen Wright in slot 135 is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick203 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor in the 203rd overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick217 Rnd6 J.J. Weaver
J.J. Weaver at Round 6, Pick 42 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick219 Rnd6 Evan Williams
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Evan Williams. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick246 Rnd7 John Emery Jr.
Value said wait; John Emery Jr. in pick No. 246 says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
