Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA FutureB
A solid, sensible weekend for the Packers: B.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Frank Crum; the Packers did not wait, grabbing him 40 spots ahead at the Round 7 slot.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Smith value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the 28th pick they get a No. 1 receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
They paid sticker price for Tyler Nubin in slot 41, and that is fine. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick58 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at pick 58 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick88 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
A tidy little value on Khyree Jackson in pick No. 88, a step better than break-even. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dominick Puni. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick126 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo at Round 4, Pick 26 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick134 Rnd4 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at slot 134 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The roster fit checks out.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones at pick No. 144 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
They let Tykee Smith come to them and pounced at No. 169. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jase McClellan in pick 200. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick202 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent at the Round 6 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick219 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson in the 219th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick245 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor in Round 7, Pick 25 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick255 Rnd7 Frank Crum
Frank Crum at the 255th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
