Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Packers for Worthy: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Xavier Worthy had no business being available in the 88th pick, and the Packers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In No. 25 they get a potential shutdown corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
Value with a capital V on Cooper DeJean in pick 41, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick58 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Graham Barton at the 58th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick88 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at Round 3, Pick 25 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
Pick91 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Kingsley Suamataia in the Round 3 slot, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick126 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams in the 126th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
They barely believed it either: Tommy Eichenberg still on the board at slot 169. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick202 Rnd6 Malik Mustapha
They robbed the room for Malik Mustapha here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick219 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
A wide receiver of that caliber at slot 219 is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick245 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in pick 245 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick255 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
Circle this one: Trevin Wallace at the Round 7 slot is a fall that decides a draft. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
