Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB TradesD FutureA
The Packers cashed the board's mistake on Gould: B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Anthony Gould, the 219th pick, roughly 77 picks past where he belonged.

Reaching for Slovis left real value on the table behind him. It is not that Hicks is a bad player; it is that the Packers had louder needs to answer first.

Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
A straight-up fair deal on Tyler Nubin at the 41st overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick58 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
They let Chris Braswell come to them and pounced at the 58th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick76 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
A reasonable price with a little left over, Patrick Paul in the Round 3 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick91 Rnd3 Max Melton
Max Melton slipping to slot 91 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick96 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Jaden Hicks while clear needs at running back and tight end sat open.
Pick125 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams in pick 125 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick126 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
They took Johnny Wilson at par in Round 4, Pick 26, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick136 Rnd4 Caelen Carson
Steal is underselling it; Caelen Carson at pick No. 136 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick169 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in the 169th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick202 Rnd6 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
They robbed the room for Tyrone Tracy Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick207 Rnd6 Justin Rogers
A quiet steal in pick No. 207: Justin Rogers for less than the market said. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd6 Anthony Gould
Circle this one: Anthony Gould at No. 219 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick245 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers in pick 245 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick255 Rnd7 Kedon Slovis
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kedon Slovis in the 255th overall pick, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
