Draft Grade — Packers
Overall
B+
ValueB
NeedB-
TradesA+
FutureB
Best value of the weekend goes to the Packers for Smith-Wade: B+. Call it larceny. Chau Smith-Wade sat on the board until pick 203, and the Packers did not need to be asked twice. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.
They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.
The Allen pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick35
Rnd2
Tyler Nubin
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tyler Nubin in the 35th overall pick. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick41
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
Value with a capital V on Xavier Legette in the 41st pick, a genuine coup. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick60
Rnd2
Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at pick No. 60 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick73
Rnd3
Junior Colson
They took Junior Colson at par in No. 73, which is nothing to complain about. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick88
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil in pick 88 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick91
Rnd3
Bucky Irving
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bucky Irving. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick125
Rnd4
Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones in Round 4, Pick 25 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick128
Rnd4
Javon Foster
Javon Foster at the Round 4 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick133
Rnd4
MarShawn Lloyd
Nothing to complain about; MarShawn Lloyd went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick135
Rnd4
Jordan Travis
They paid sticker price for Jordan Travis in pick 135, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick140
Rnd5
Braelon Allen
They paid up for Braelon Allen at the Round 5 slot when waiting would have done the job. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick162
Rnd5
Kamal Hadden
They robbed the room for Kamal Hadden here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick203
Rnd6
Chau Smith-Wade
Chau Smith-Wade at the 203rd overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick217
Rnd6
Omar Speights
Omar Speights slid further than he should have, and slot 217 is lovely value for the linebacker. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick219
Rnd6
Jawhar Jordan
They let Jawhar Jordan come to them and pounced at pick No. 219. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick246
Rnd7
Eric Gentry
Eric Gentry at Round 7, Pick 26 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick251
Rnd7
Donovan Jennings
Donovan Jennings at No. 251 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It fills a real need, too.
