Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers did enough to get by: C+.

The war room fell hard for Cedric Gray, and it showed at Round 3, Pick 28: 44 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. It washes out to a C+, no better and no worse.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. On value alone, Bertrand makes the weekend a net positive.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A wild overpay on Jackson Powers-Johnson in the 25th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
A reasonable price with a little left over, Kamren Kinchens in the Round 2 slot. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick57 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in No. 57 is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick88 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving in Round 3, Pick 25 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in pick No. 91 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick125 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine in slot 125 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick135 Rnd4 Jaylen Wright
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jaylen Wright in No. 135, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick203 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and JD Bertrand at the 203rd overall pick is the proof. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick217 Rnd6 Daequan Hardy
They went early on Daequan Hardy in Round 6, Pick 42, and the value did not follow. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick219 Rnd6 J.J. Weaver
J.J. Weaver in the 219th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick246 Rnd7 Evan Williams
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Evan Williams well ahead of where he belonged. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
