Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Packers won the night they stopped McCoy from sliding. Grade: B.

The Packers spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Bru McCoy, the No. 187 name on the board, in the Round 6 slot.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In pick No. 19 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
They did well to land Troy Fautanu in the Round 2 slot, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick51 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins at the 51st pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick89 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Fair-plus on Brenden Rice, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick92 Rnd3 Blake Corum
They read the board right and Blake Corum was the payoff at pick 92. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick119 Rnd4 Donovan Jackson
Nothing to complain about; Donovan Jackson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick126 Rnd4 Max Melton
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Max Melton at No. 126 is the proof. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick135 Rnd4 James Williams
A clean, defensible pick in Round 4, Pick 35 with a little surplus value in James Williams. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick197 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at the Round 6 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick204 Rnd6 Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau slid further than he should have, and slot 204 is lovely value for the linebacker. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick217 Rnd6 Bru McCoy
They robbed the room for Bru McCoy here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick219 Rnd6 Tatum Bethune
Tatum Bethune in the 219th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick240 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern at Round 7, Pick 20 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick247 Rnd7 Aaron Frost
Aaron Frost in the 247th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
