Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Packers walked out of the weekend still thin at edge rusher, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons.

On value alone, Orange makes the weekend a net positive. On the needs board they went 3 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Chris Johnson
Nothing to complain about; Chris Johnson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick84 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
They let Domonique Orange come to them and pounced at slot 84. It fills a real need, too.
Pick120 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
By-the-book stuff, J.C. Davis at No. 120 squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick158 Rnd5 Zane Durant
They took Zane Durant at par in pick 158, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
