Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers cashed the board's mistake on Bond: B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Isaiah Bond at Round 4, Pick 22 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. The Lindenberg pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In slot 23 they get the heartbeat of the defense. More want than need.
Pick54 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts slid further than he should have, and the 54th pick is lovely value for the safety. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick87 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston at the Round 3 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick124 Rnd4 Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond at No. 124 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick159 Rnd5 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at pick No. 159 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick198 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II in pick 198 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick237 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
A reach for Cody Lindenberg in Round 7, Pick 21; a little patience would have been rewarded. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick250 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
They took Tonka Hemingway at par in the 250th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
