Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Packers let Smith fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

Somebody in the 196th overall pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Packers sat still while Brashard Smith, the No. 100 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. Reaching for Vinson left real value on the table behind him. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

Adding Martin Emerson Jr. by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau at the Round 2 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick54 Rnd2 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at the 54th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick67 Rnd3 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at Round 3, Pick 3 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
They read the board right and Jayden Higgins was the payoff at No. 87. It fills a real need, too.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at slot 122 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick158 Rnd5 Carson Vinson
They reached into another round for Carson Vinson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick196 Rnd6 Brashard Smith
They barely believed it either: Brashard Smith still on the board at pick No. 196. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick237 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock in pick 237 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick250 Rnd7 Jamaree Caldwell
A big swing on Jamaree Caldwell at Round 7, Pick 34, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
