Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Packers lost the trade table, and the C+ tells the story.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Jaydon Blue, 106 picks early at pick No. 207. The final tally is a middling C+.

On value alone, Mondon Jr. makes the weekend a net positive. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Hit on Shemar Stewart and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Shemar Stewart
In pick 23 they get a bendy edge with upside, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick61 Rnd2 Darien Porter
They paid a round early for Darien Porter in slot 61, more than the board wanted. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick87 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Maxwell Hairston at the 87th pick is the proof. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick123 Rnd4 Donovan Jackson
Somehow Donovan Jackson was still sitting there in pick No. 123, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick160 Rnd5 Logan Brown
Logan Brown is a better player than Round 5, Pick 21 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick173 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at the Round 5 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick200 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
KeAndre Lambert-Smith at the 200th overall pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jaydon Blue
Value said wait; Jaydon Blue in the Round 6 slot says they were not listening. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick251 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
Tonka Hemingway at the 251st pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
