Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Packers.

The Packers clearly saw something nobody else did in Matthew Jones, taking him 25 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

It is not that Smith is a bad player; it is that the Packers had louder needs to answer first. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

The Haynes pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a sticky cover corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock in the 43rd overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in the Round 2 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick88 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
A slide stopped in pick 88, with Christian Haynes worth more than the price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Tykee Smith in No. 91 leaves quarterback, wide receiver and other spots for later.
Pick109 Rnd4 Ray Davis
No drama and no debate, Ray Davis went about where he belonged in the 109th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick125 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Justin Eboigbe. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick137 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
They paid sticker price for Kamal Hadden in Round 5, Pick 1, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick203 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in pick 203 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick217 Rnd6 Matthew Jones
They talked themselves into Matthew Jones at the 217th pick, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
They let Jawhar Jordan come to them and pounced at the Round 6 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick246 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
Good price on Nathaniel Watson in No. 246, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
