Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers landed square in the muddy middle: C+.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Jackson Powers-Johnson in pick 25, a good 26 spots before the room expected him. It lands right in the middle: a C+, no more, no less.

The Packers indulged a want in Hicks while a need in edge rusher, cornerback and other spots stayed open. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Job largely done: running back settled and 2 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the 25th pick they get a blindside protector, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They paid up for Edgerrin Cooper at the 41st overall pick when waiting would have done the job. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jonathon Brooks. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick88 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
They paid a round early for Tykee Smith in the Round 3 slot, more than the board wanted. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
A surprising call. With edge rusher, cornerback and other spots still to address, they spent slot 91 on Jaden Hicks, a safety they were not short of.
Pick126 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Cedric Gray at linebacker with edge rusher, cornerback and other spots open.
