Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Johnson should have been long gone. The Packers pounced, and earned a B.

The Packers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Dillon Johnson fell into the 204th pick. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In No. 25 they get a lockdown presence outside, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
No drama and no debate, Tyler Nubin went about where he belonged in the 41st overall pick. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick58 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Adisa Isaac at pick No. 58. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick88 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Circle this one: Patrick Paul at the 88th pick is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick91 Rnd3 Javon Baker
They took Javon Baker at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick127 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Fair-plus on Cedric Gray, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick168 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
They did well to land Trevor Keegan in Round 5, Pick 32, just ahead of his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick204 Rnd6 Dillon Johnson
Taking Dillon Johnson in slot 204 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick216 Rnd6 Elijah Jones
You do not let a cornerback like Elijah Jones reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick243 Rnd7 Javontae Jean-Baptiste
Javontae Jean-Baptiste is a better player than slot 243 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick251 Rnd7 Evan Williams
A tidy bit of business in the 251st overall pick, where Evan Williams graded well above the range. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
