Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Dylan McMahon; the Packers did not wait, grabbing him 71 spots ahead at the 169th overall pick.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Spending an early pick on OLB-EDGE with edge rusher, quarterback and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. The Steele steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In pick No. 25 they get an island corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
A big swing on Cooper Beebe at the Round 2 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jaden Hicks
They took Jaden Hicks at par in the 58th pick, which is nothing to complain about. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick88 Rnd3 Javon Solomon
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick 88 on Javon Solomon with edge rusher, quarterback and other spots unsolved.
Pick91 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at No. 91 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick126 Rnd4 James Williams
This one needs a full-page explanation: James Williams in Round 4, Pick 26, miles early. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick169 Rnd5 Dylan McMahon
They talked themselves into Dylan McMahon at pick 169, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jalen Coker
They liked Jalen Coker enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 6 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick219 Rnd6 Tyrice Knight
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tyrice Knight in pick No. 219. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick245 Rnd7 Tarheeb Still
Good price on Tarheeb Still in the 245th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick255 Rnd7 Carson Steele
The board had Carson Steele higher than slot 255, and the running back fell to them anyway. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
