Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesC+ FutureB-
Grand theft in the Round 7 slot: the Packers steal Woodson and grade out a B-.

Every other box got a look, but edge rusher did not. The Packers will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

On value alone, Woodson makes the weekend a net positive. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In slot 23 they get a three-down second-level presence. More want than need.
Pick40 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Emeka Egbuka at No. 40 is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
Pick124 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
No edge and no loss on Dorian Strong in the 124th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick159 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
Good price on Bhayshul Tuten in pick 159, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick198 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
They paid sticker price for Jay Higgins in pick No. 198, and that is fine. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick237 Rnd7 Craig Woodson
The board fumbled Craig Woodson all the way to Round 7, Pick 21, and they scooped it up. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick250 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ty Hamilton. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
