Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Packers and Ulofoshio: B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Edefuan Ulofoshio slide, and the Packers were the ones holding the card at No. 219. Highway robbery.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. The Smith pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher, quarterback and other spots still on the board. The McGlothern pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In the 25th overall pick they get a potential shutdown corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens at the Round 2 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
No drama and no debate, Edgerrin Cooper went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 25. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick88 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
They let Christian Haynes come to them and pounced at No. 88. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick91 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
A reasonable price with a little left over, Braden Fiske in pick 91. It fills a real need, too.
Pick125 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
A surprising call. With edge rusher, quarterback and other spots still to address, they spent slot 125 on Tykee Smith, a safety they were not short of.
Pick135 Rnd4 Will Shipley
Will Shipley at the 135th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jaylen Wright
Taking Jaylen Wright in pick No. 203 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick217 Rnd6 LaDarius Henderson
Steal is underselling it; LaDarius Henderson at Round 6, Pick 42 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick219 Rnd6 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Circle this one: Edefuan Ulofoshio at No. 219 is a fall that decides a draft. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick246 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in the 246th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
