Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Packers: B-.

The Packers spent real capital to be 32 picks early on Jaylen Wright, and the board is going to hold them to it. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

That is a linebacker worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the outside at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at the 41st pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick57 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
A tidy bit of business in No. 57, where Kris Jenkins graded well above the range. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick88 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
They let Johnny Wilson come to them and pounced at pick No. 88. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick91 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
No edge and no loss on Tykee Smith in slot 91; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jaylen Wright
Value said wait; Jaylen Wright in the 126th overall pick says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick168 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen slipping to pick No. 168 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick203 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in the 203rd pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick216 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
You do not let a linebacker like JD Bertrand reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick243 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
They paid a round early for Dwight McGlothern in No. 243, more than the board wanted. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick251 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
They took Eric Gentry at par in pick 251, which is nothing to complain about. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
