Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Packers, and a B- to prove it.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Packers did exactly that with Jaylen Wright in No. 126.

On value alone, Jacobs makes the weekend a net positive. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

The Packers indulged a want in Hicks while a need in quarterback and tight end stayed open.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at No. 35 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens at pick No. 41 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick57 Rnd2 Devontez Walker
Devontez Walker at the Round 2 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick66 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson at pick 66 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending slot 88 on Jaden Hicks with quarterback and tight end unsolved.
Pick91 Rnd3 Max Melton
Max Melton in Round 3, Pick 28 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jaylen Wright
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jaylen Wright this early at slot 126. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick137 Rnd5 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in the 137th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick168 Rnd5 Isaiah Davis
They reached into another round for Isaiah Davis, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick188 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in the 188th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The roster fit checks out.
Pick203 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Circle this one: Curtis Jacobs at No. 203 is a fall that decides a draft. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick216 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
JD Bertrand in pick 216 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick243 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Dwight McGlothern. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick251 Rnd7 Xavier Thomas
A reach on Xavier Thomas in pick No. 251; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
