Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Packers: B-.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Packers spent the 91st overall pick on Tommy Eichenberg, a name the board had a full 54 spots lower.

That Wiley pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the 25th pick they get an island corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
No edge and no loss on Cooper Beebe in slot 41; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
They took Kingsley Suamataia at par in Round 2, Pick 26, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick88 Rnd3 Kalen King
Kalen King at pick No. 88 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick91 Rnd3 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg in the 91st overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick126 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
They read the board right and Blake Fisher was the payoff at the Round 4 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick169 Rnd5 Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse in slot 169 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick202 Rnd6 Daijun Edwards
Daijun Edwards is a better player than pick No. 202 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick219 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Somehow Curtis Jacobs was still sitting there in pick 219, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jared Wiley
Jared Wiley in the 245th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick255 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Josh Proctor at Round 7, Pick 35 is the proof. A minor itch, scratched.
