Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Packers went off the board in a big way for Evan Williams, 63 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. The Grable pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In slot 25 they get an island corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Edgerrin Cooper. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick58 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
Nothing to complain about; Javon Bullard went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick88 Rnd3 Roger Rosengarten
They paid a round early for Roger Rosengarten in Round 3, Pick 25, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick91 Rnd3 MarShawn Lloyd
No drama and no debate, MarShawn Lloyd went about where he belonged in pick 91. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick126 Rnd4 Mason McCormick
A wild overpay on Mason McCormick in No. 126, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick169 Rnd5 Evan Williams
Evan Williams in slot 169 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jacob Monk
A real head-scratcher, Jacob Monk in the 202nd overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick219 Rnd6 Tyrice Knight
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tyrice Knight in pick No. 219. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick245 Rnd7 Tylan Grable
Circle this one: Tylan Grable at the Round 7 slot is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick255 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson at the 255th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
