Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Packers, and a B- to prove it.

The Packers went off the board in a big way for John Emery Jr., 96 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Barrett pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The Hicks pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, quarterback and other spots.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick39 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They went early on Jackson Powers-Johnson in slot 39, and the value did not follow. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
Good price on Kamren Kinchens in the Round 2 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They paid sticker price for Edgerrin Cooper in Round 2, Pick 25, and that is fine. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick70 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson in No. 70 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick88 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
A tidy little value on Mike Sainristil in the 88th pick, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick91 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley at pick 91 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick107 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
A want over a need in the 107th pick: Jaden Hicks adds a safety while edge rusher, quarterback and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick108 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni at No. 108 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick135 Rnd4 Jaylen Wright
A real head-scratcher, Jaylen Wright in the 135th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick203 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
A linebacker of that caliber at slot 203 is the definition of value, full stop. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick219 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Dwight McGlothern. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick246 Rnd7 John Emery Jr.
John Emery Jr. in pick No. 246 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
