Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers let Jones fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

The Packers spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Jarrian Jones, the No. 123 name on the board, in pick 168. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The cost of the Wright reach is exactly the players who went right after him. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In pick 25 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman is a better player than the 41st overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
Jonathon Brooks in slot 57 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick88 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
They will replay Javon Bullard at Round 3, Pick 25 for years; that is how good the value is. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick91 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Junior Colson in pick No. 91 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jaylen Wright
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jaylen Wright. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
Somehow Jarrian Jones was still sitting there in the 168th pick, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick203 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in the Round 6 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick216 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson at the Round 6 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick243 Rnd7 Demani Richardson
No drama and no debate, Demani Richardson went about where he belonged in the 243rd pick. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick251 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
A straight-up fair deal on Dwight McGlothern at slot 251, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
