Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers robbed the room for Worthy. Final grade: B-.

Somebody in the 88th overall pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Packers sat still while Xavier Worthy, the No. 55 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They are betting Eichenberg proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In No. 25 they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
A straight-up fair deal on Chris Braswell at the 41st overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick58 Rnd2 Max Melton
Max Melton at pick No. 58 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick88 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in the 88th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick91 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
The board fumbled Patrick Paul all the way to the Round 3 slot, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick126 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg in Round 4, Pick 26 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick169 Rnd5 Dylan Laube
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Dylan Laube in pick 169. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick202 Rnd6 Julian Pearl
They took Julian Pearl at par in slot 202, which is nothing to complain about. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
A tidy little value on Caedan Wallace in pick 219, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick245 Rnd7 Nathan Thomas
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Nathan Thomas at slot 245. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick255 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Circle this one: Frank Gore Jr. at No. 255 is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
