Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

Nobody else had Matthew Jones anywhere near pick No. 203. The Packers did, by 30 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

It is not that Gray is a bad player; it is that the Packers had louder needs to answer first. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Getting Tampa where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a sticky cover corner at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Chop Robinson. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick57 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and T.J. Tampa at No. 57 is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick88 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Junior Colson at pick 88. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick92 Rnd3 Audric Estime
They took Audric Estime at par in pick No. 92, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick125 Rnd4 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha at the 125th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick135 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went linebacker with Cedric Gray while clear needs at quarterback, wide receiver and other spots sat open.
Pick203 Rnd6 Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones at the 203rd overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick217 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
Nice patience on Jase McClellan, who had no business lasting to slot 217. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick219 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan at pick 219 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick246 Rnd7 Tatum Bethune
Tatum Bethune in the 246th pick is fair value, right on his grade. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
