Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Packers: B-.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Packers spent pick No. 246 on Evan Williams, a name the board had a full 36 spots lower. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Rakestraw Jr. value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the 25th overall pick they get a blindside protector. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
Nothing to complain about; Chop Robinson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick57 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
A cornerback of that caliber at pick No. 57 is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick88 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
No drama and no debate, Bucky Irving went about where he belonged in slot 88. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jalen McMillan
A tidy bit of business in the Round 3 slot, where Jalen McMillan graded well above the range. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick125 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
No edge and no loss on Justin Eboigbe in the 125th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick135 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
By-the-book stuff, Cedric Gray at slot 135 squarely in line with his ranking. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick203 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
Gabe Hall at No. 203 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick217 Rnd6 Omar Speights
A quiet steal in the Round 6 slot: Omar Speights for less than the market said. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick219 Rnd6 Demani Richardson
They reached a country mile for Demani Richardson at pick No. 219, and the board is aghast. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick246 Rnd7 Evan Williams
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Evan Williams well ahead of where he belonged. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
