Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers let Rogers fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

The Packers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Justin Rogers fell into the 203rd pick. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Powers-Johnson reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
No drama and no debate, Quinyon Mitchell went about where he belonged in pick No. 25. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They paid up for Jackson Powers-Johnson at pick 41 when waiting would have done the job. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick88 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley is a better player than slot 88 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick91 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving in the 91st overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick125 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
The board fumbled Dominick Puni all the way to the 125th pick, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick135 Rnd4 Malik Mustapha
They paid sticker price for Malik Mustapha in No. 135, and that is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick203 Rnd6 Justin Rogers
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Justin Rogers reach Round 6, Pick 28 and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick217 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
A tidy bit of business in pick 217, where Jawhar Jordan graded well above the range. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick219 Rnd6 Omar Speights
A slide stopped in slot 219, with Omar Speights worth more than the price. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick246 Rnd7 Demani Richardson
By-the-book stuff, Demani Richardson at No. 246 squarely in line with his ranking. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
