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

Thirty-one other rooms let Troy Franklin slide, and the Packers were the ones holding the card at pick 88. Highway robbery. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. They will need Hicks to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In No. 25 they get a lockdown presence outside, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson in pick No. 41 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick57 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins at slot 57 is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick88 Rnd3 Troy Franklin
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Troy Franklin in Round 3, Pick 25, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
They paid up for Jaden Hicks at the 91st overall pick when waiting would have done the job. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick126 Rnd4 Will Shipley
Will Shipley at the Round 4 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick168 Rnd5 Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki at pick 168 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick203 Rnd6 Isaiah Davis
Nice patience on Isaiah Davis, who had no business lasting to the 203rd pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick216 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A tidy bit of business in the Round 6 slot, where Christian Jones graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick243 Rnd7 Darius Muasau
A tidy little value on Darius Muasau in the 243rd pick, a step better than break-even. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick251 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson at slot 251 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
