Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A mixed bag for the Packers, and a C+ to match.

The Packers spent real capital to be 64 picks early on Trevin Wallace, and the board is going to hold them to it. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

So much rides on Jackson Powers-Johnson that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the 25th pick they get protection for the quarterback at fair value.
Pick41 Rnd2 Junior Colson
A reach for Junior Colson in pick No. 41; a little patience would have been rewarded. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick58 Rnd2 Max Melton
Max Melton at the 58th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick88 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
A reasonable price with a little left over, Calen Bullock in pick 88. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick91 Rnd3 Gabriel Murphy
No drama and no debate, Gabriel Murphy went about where he belonged in slot 91. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick126 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
They paid a round early for Roger Rosengarten in No. 126, more than the board wanted. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick169 Rnd5 Trevin Wallace
They left a pile of value on the table to take Trevin Wallace this early at No. 169. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick202 Rnd6 Kimani Vidal
A wild overpay on Kimani Vidal in pick 202, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jalen Sundell
They reached a country mile for Jalen Sundell at the Round 6 slot, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick245 Rnd7 Marcellas Dial
They took Marcellas Dial at par in pick No. 245, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick255 Rnd7 Josh Wallace
Josh Wallace in the 255th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
