Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Packers for McClellan: B-.

The Packers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Jase McClellan fell into the Round 6 slot. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it. The Stover pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with cornerback, quarterback and other spots still on the board.

Every board in the league had Chambers lower, and that gap is the story.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In No. 25 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
No drama and no debate, Chris Braswell went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick58 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
A straight-up fair deal on Javon Bullard at the 58th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick88 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A tidy bit of business in slot 88, where Cooper Beebe graded well above the range. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick91 Rnd3 Cade Stover
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went TE-EDGE with Cade Stover while clear needs at cornerback, quarterback and other spots sat open.
Pick127 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson in pick No. 127 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick168 Rnd5 Steele Chambers
This one needs a full-page explanation: Steele Chambers in pick 168, miles early. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick204 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
Value with a capital V on Cornelius Johnson in the 204th pick, a genuine coup. It fills a real need, too.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
Jase McClellan in pick No. 216 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick243 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
You do not let an offensive lineman like Garret Greenfield reach Round 7, Pick 23 and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jordan Whittington
A clean, defensible pick in No. 251 with a little surplus value in Jordan Whittington. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
