Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
Larceny in pick 91 lands the Packers a B+, Dorlus and all.

The board owed the Packers one, and it paid up: Brandon Dorlus, the No. 56 name on the board, sitting there at the Round 3 slot like a gift left on the doorstep. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They will need Proctor to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 27th overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Ennis Rakestraw Jr. at slot 44 is the proof. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick59 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in the 59th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick88 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson slipping to pick No. 88 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick91 Rnd3 Brandon Dorlus
Taking Brandon Dorlus in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick125 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith at No. 125 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick135 Rnd4 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha in Round 4, Pick 35 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick140 Rnd5 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine at pick 140 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick164 Rnd5 Josh Proctor
A wild overpay on Josh Proctor in the 164th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick203 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A tidy little value on Christian Jones in No. 203, a step better than break-even. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick217 Rnd6 Jaylen Harrell
The board had Jaylen Harrell higher than the 217th overall pick, and the edge rusher fell to them anyway. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick219 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in Round 6, Pick 44 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick246 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
A reach for Dwight McGlothern in slot 246; a little patience would have been rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
