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

Nobody else had Evan Williams anywhere near pick 169. The Packers did, by 63 spots, and that gap is the whole story. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

The Magee value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

They will answer for taking linebacker early while edge rusher, quarterback and other spots went begging.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a cornerstone up front, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in the Round 2 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick58 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard in pick No. 58 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick88 Rnd3 MarShawn Lloyd
They took MarShawn Lloyd at par in pick 88, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91 Rnd3 Roger Rosengarten
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Roger Rosengarten. The roster fit checks out.
Pick126 Rnd4 Trevin Wallace
A want over a need in No. 126: Trevin Wallace adds a linebacker while edge rusher, quarterback and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick169 Rnd5 Evan Williams
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Evan Williams. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jacob Monk
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jacob Monk this early at No. 202. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee at pick No. 219 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick245 Rnd7 Daijahn Anthony
Daijahn Anthony at slot 245 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick255 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson in the 255th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
