Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
Robinson should have been long gone. The Packers pounced, and earned a B.

Call it larceny. Chop Robinson sat on the board until No. 88, and the Packers did not need to be asked twice. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The Mettauer pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In pick No. 25 they get a sticky cover corner, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
The board fumbled Kool-Aid McKinstry all the way to No. 41, and they scooped it up. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick57 Rnd2 Dallas Turner
Taking Dallas Turner in pick 57 is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick88 Rnd3 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson in slot 88 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick92 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Zak Zinter. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick125 Rnd4 MarShawn Lloyd
No edge and no loss on MarShawn Lloyd in Round 4, Pick 25; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick135 Rnd4 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha at the 135th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick166 Rnd5 Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright at the Round 5 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick203 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at the Round 6 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick217 Rnd6 Matthew Jones
They reached into another round for Matthew Jones, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick219 Rnd6 Joshua Cephus
Joshua Cephus at pick No. 219 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick246 Rnd7 McKade Mettauer
This one needs a full-page explanation: McKade Mettauer in the 246th pick, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick250 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
No drama and no debate, Dwight McGlothern went about where he belonged in Round 7, Pick 30. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
