Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureB
A solid, sensible weekend for the Packers: B-.

The Packers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the 219th overall pick on Dwight McGlothern a full 38 spots early.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Braswell. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They will answer for taking safety early while quarterback, wide receiver and other spots went begging.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In the Round 1 slot they get a press-man option on the boundary. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A reach on Jackson Powers-Johnson in slot 43; the board had better options right there. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick57 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at No. 57 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick88 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell at the 88th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in pick No. 91 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jaylen Wright
A big swing on Jaylen Wright at pick 125, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick135 Rnd4 Malik Mustapha
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending slot 135 on Malik Mustapha with quarterback, wide receiver and other spots unsolved.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
A straight-up fair deal on Jordan Magee at the 203rd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick217 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Gabe Hall at the 217th pick is the proof. The roster fit checks out.
Pick219 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
A wild overpay on Dwight McGlothern in pick 219, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick246 Rnd7 Donovan Jennings
By-the-book stuff, Donovan Jennings at No. 246 squarely in line with his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
