Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers robbed the room for McClellan. Final grade: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Jase McClellan tumbling to the Packers in pick No. 246 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Every board in the league had Estime lower, and that gap is the story.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In pick 25 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Nice patience on Chris Braswell, who had no business lasting to the 41st pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick57 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
No drama and no debate, T'Vondre Sweat went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 25. The roster fit checks out.
Pick88 Rnd3 Audric Estime
A reach for Audric Estime in pick No. 88; a little patience would have been rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Christian Haynes at slot 91 is the proof. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick125 Rnd4 Javon Foster
They paid sticker price for Javon Foster in the 125th overall pick, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick135 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
A slide stopped in No. 135, with Tommy Eichenberg worth more than the price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick203 Rnd6 Miyan Williams
A tidy little value on Miyan Williams in the Round 6 slot, a step better than break-even. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick217 Rnd6 Kenny Logan Jr.
Kenny Logan Jr. is a better player than pick No. 217 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick219 Rnd6 Omar Speights
Somehow Omar Speights was still sitting there in the 219th pick, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick246 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
Circle this one: Jase McClellan at the 246th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
