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

Nobody else had Kalen King anywhere near the 91st overall pick. The Packers did, by 48 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

Jones falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In pick 25 they get a lockdown presence outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Graham Barton at No. 41. The roster fit checks out.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
By-the-book stuff, Kingsley Suamataia at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick88 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dominick Puni. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick91 Rnd3 Kalen King
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Kalen King. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick126 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at slot 126 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Jarrian Jones in the 169th pick, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jaylen Harrell
They took Jaylen Harrell at par in Round 6, Pick 27, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick219 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at the Round 6 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Tayvion Robinson
Tayvion Robinson is a better player than No. 245 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick255 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
Somehow Trevin Wallace was still sitting there in slot 255, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
