Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Braelon Allen; the Packers did not wait, grabbing him 26 spots ahead at slot 125.

The Packers indulged a want in Williams while a need in quarterback, tight end and other spots stayed open. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. The Bertrand pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In pick 25 they get a bendy edge with upside, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa at pick No. 41 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick57 Rnd2 Calen Bullock
A tidy bit of business in the 57th pick, where Calen Bullock graded well above the range. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick88 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
They did well to land Mike Sainristil in the 88th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick91 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at Round 3, Pick 28 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick125 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
They left a pile of value on the table to take Braelon Allen this early at No. 125. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick135 Rnd4 James Williams
They zigged when the board said zag, taking James Williams at safety with quarterback, tight end and other spots open.
Pick203 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
Value with a capital V on JD Bertrand in pick 203, a genuine coup. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick217 Rnd6 Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones in the Round 6 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick219 Rnd6 Joshua Cephus
They jumped the gun on Joshua Cephus, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick246 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
Eric Gentry at Round 7, Pick 26 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
