Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Packers: B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Packers took Kalen King at pick No. 91, roughly 48 spots before his name belonged. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

The Mims pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the 25th pick they get a press-man option on the boundary. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Amarius Mims at slot 41. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
The board had cheaper options than Kiran Amegadjie at pick No. 58, and it noticed. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick88 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
They took Khyree Jackson at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91 Rnd3 Kalen King
Kalen King at pick 91 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick126 Rnd4 Sione Vaki
They reached into another round for Sione Vaki, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
A big swing on Tanor Bortolini at pick 169, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick202 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
A reasonable price with a little left over, Curtis Jacobs in No. 202. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
Jared Wiley is a better player than the Round 6 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick245 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
A slide stopped in slot 245, with Edefuan Ulofoshio worth more than the price. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick255 Rnd7 Miyan Williams
Miyan Williams at the 255th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
