Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
The Packers checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

Nobody else had J.J. Weaver anywhere near the Round 7 slot. The Packers did, by 152 spots, and that gap is the whole story. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Parrish value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In pick No. 23 they get a sticky cover corner, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery slid further than he should have, and slot 58 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins is a better player than No. 87 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick123 Rnd4 Pat Bryant
They talked themselves into Pat Bryant at the 123rd pick, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Value with a capital V on Jordan Phillips in the Round 4 slot, a genuine coup. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick160 Rnd5 Logan Brown
A clean, defensible pick in Round 5, Pick 21 with a little surplus value in Logan Brown. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick200 Rnd6 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at the 200th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jacob Parrish
A slide stopped in No. 239, with Jacob Parrish worth more than the price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick243 Rnd7 J.J. Weaver
They reached into another round for J.J. Weaver, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
Jaylin Smith at Round 7, Pick 33 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
