Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Packers let Estime fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

The real work happened on the phones. The Packers fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with.

The Estime steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The Jones pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

The Packers paired the rookies with proven help, Za'Darius Smith leading the way.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims in the 25th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick55 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell in slot 55 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at Round 2, Pick 25 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick84 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
A reasonable price with a little left over, Mike Sainristil in the Round 3 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick88 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at the 88th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick91 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
A straight-up fair deal on Zak Zinter at No. 91, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick125 Rnd4 Audric Estime
The board fumbled Audric Estime all the way to the 125th pick, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick135 Rnd4 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at the 135th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick159 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
No edge and no loss on Kitan Oladapo in slot 159; it is a wash and a sensible one. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick203 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
A premium they did not need to pay, Tanor Bortolini a notch or two before his time. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick217 Rnd6 Matthew Jones
They reached into another round for Matthew Jones, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
They let Jawhar Jordan come to them and pounced at the Round 6 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick246 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
Nothing to complain about; Nathaniel Watson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
