Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers cashed the board's mistake on Jones: B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Jarrian Jones at No. 169 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

Wallace has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

On the needs board they went 3 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the 25th pick they get a lockdown presence outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They liked Edgerrin Cooper enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 41. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jaylen Wright
They jumped the gun on Jaylen Wright, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick88 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dominick Puni. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick91 Rnd3 Cole Bishop
A reach for Cole Bishop in slot 91; a little patience would have been rewarded. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick126 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
They read the board right and Blake Fisher was the payoff at the 126th overall pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
You do not let a cornerback like Jarrian Jones reach No. 169 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick202 Rnd6 Trevin Wallace
They reached a country mile for Trevin Wallace at the Round 6 slot, and the board is aghast. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
Jase McClellan at the 219th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jalen Sundell
They took Jalen Sundell at par in Round 7, Pick 25, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick255 Rnd7 Omar Brown
They left a pile of value on the table to take Omar Brown this early at No. 255. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
