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

Thirty-one other rooms let Trevor Keegan slide, and the Packers were the ones holding the card at Round 6, Pick 44. Highway robbery. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The cost of the Gant reach is exactly the players who went right after him. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

The Green pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, wide receiver and other spots.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 JC Latham
JC Latham is a better player than the 25th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
Pick41 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
No drama and no debate, Payton Wilson went about where he belonged in pick 41. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in No. 58 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick88 Rnd3 Renardo Green
A surprising call. With quarterback, wide receiver and other spots still to address, they spent slot 88 on Renardo Green, a safety they were not short of.
Pick91 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni in pick No. 91 is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick126 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
They paid a round early for Isaac Guerendo in Round 4, Pick 26, more than the board wanted. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt at the 169th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick202 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Kamal Hadden in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick219 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
Somehow Trevor Keegan was still sitting there in slot 219, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
A running back of that caliber at pick 245 is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick255 Rnd7 Dallas Gant
A wild overpay on Dallas Gant in the Round 7 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
