Draft Grade — Packers
Overall

FutureB-
The Packers let Caldwell fall into their laps, and walked away with a D-. The Packers lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again. It grades a D-, and the process earned it.
The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. If Gulbin pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.
Landing Caldwell that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and quarterback is still a hole.
Pick Analysis
Pick39
Rnd2
Brandon Cisse
Brandon Cisse at the 39th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick52
Rnd2
Caleb Tiernan
Caleb Tiernan in the 52nd pick is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick70
Rnd3
Lee Hunter
Steal is underselling it; Lee Hunter at No. 70 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick84
Rnd3
Jake Golday
Jake Golday at pick No. 84 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick93
Rnd3
Malik Muhammad
Good price on Malik Muhammad in Round 3, Pick 29, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick120
Rnd4
J.C. Davis
A straight-up fair deal on J.C. Davis at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick158
Rnd5
Bryce Boettcher
A reach on Bryce Boettcher in slot 158; the board had better options right there. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick167
Rnd5
Matt Gulbin
A conviction pick on Matt Gulbin at No. 167 that the board grades a round light. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick199
Rnd6
David Gusta
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on David Gusta. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick236
Rnd7
Trey Zuhn III
They went early on Trey Zuhn III in Round 7, Pick 20, and the value did not follow. The roster fit checks out.
Pick254
Rnd7
TJ Hall
TJ Hall in pick No. 254 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick257
Rnd7
Jeff Caldwell
Taking Jeff Caldwell in the 257th pick is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
