Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in pick 217: the Packers steal Wright and grade out a B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Packers watched Jaylen Wright slide 59 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The cost of the Allen reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the 25th pick they get a ballhawk on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa in slot 41 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at pick No. 57 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick88 Rnd3 Bralen Trice
Taking Bralen Trice in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick91 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
No edge and no loss on Tykee Smith in the 91st overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick125 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in Round 4, Pick 25 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick135 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at pick 135 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick203 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A tidy little value on Christian Jones in No. 203, a step better than break-even. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick217 Rnd6 Jaylen Wright
Steal is underselling it; Jaylen Wright at the 217th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick219 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
They paid a round early for Trevor Keegan in slot 219, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick246 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern at the Round 7 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
