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

The Packers went off the board in a big way for Kimani Vidal, 34 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. The Packers indulged a want in Wilson while a need in quarterback, wide receiver and other spots stayed open.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a sticky cover corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A slide stopped in No. 58, with Edgerrin Cooper worth more than the price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick59 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at the Round 2 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick64 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Payton Wilson adds a linebacker and leaves quarterback, wide receiver and other spots untouched.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jaden Hicks in the 88th pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick91 Rnd3 Gabriel Murphy
No edge and no loss on Gabriel Murphy in the 91st overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick123 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
They let Elijah Jones come to them and pounced at No. 123. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick169 Rnd5 Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse at Round 5, Pick 33 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick181 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
A straight-up fair deal on Tanor Bortolini at pick No. 181, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
Pick219 Rnd6 Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal in the 219th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
