Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedC+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers robbed the room for Keegan. Final grade: B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Packers were there to profit. Trevor Keegan, the No. 156 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick No. 219.

The cost of the Williams reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The Packers indulged a want in Oladapo while a need in edge rusher, cornerback and other spots stayed open.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Fair-plus on Jordan Morgan, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick58 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard at the 58th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick88 Rnd3 MarShawn Lloyd
MarShawn Lloyd at pick No. 88 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Trevin Wallace
They left a pile of value on the table to take Trevin Wallace this early at slot 91. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kitan Oladapo
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Kitan Oladapo while clear needs at edge rusher, cornerback and other spots sat open.
Pick169 Rnd5 Evan Williams
A real head-scratcher, Evan Williams in No. 169 is miles ahead of his ranking. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee at the Round 6 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick219 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
They will replay Trevor Keegan at Round 6, Pick 44 for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick245 Rnd7 Tylan Grable
Tylan Grable at slot 245 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick255 Rnd7 KT Leveston
Taking KT Leveston in the Round 7 slot is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
