Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Packers, and a B to prove it.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Hayden Hatten at Round 7, Pick 25, a reach of 82 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In pick No. 25 they get a disruptor off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They took Edgerrin Cooper at par in the 41st overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick63 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
A reasonable price with a little left over, Kingsley Suamataia in pick 63. It fills a real need, too.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Good price on Jaden Hicks in Round 3, Pick 25, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick91 Rnd3 Trey Benson
A clean, defensible pick in slot 91 with a little surplus value in Trey Benson. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick124 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones slid further than he should have, and the Round 4 slot is lovely value for the cornerback. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
They paid a round early for Jarrian Jones in pick No. 126, more than the board wanted. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick131 Rnd4 Joe Milton III
They reached a country mile for Joe Milton III at No. 131, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
They reached into another round for Tanor Bortolini, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick202 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent at pick 202 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd6 Trevin Wallace
They liked Trevin Wallace enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 6 slot. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick245 Rnd7 Hayden Hatten
A wild overpay on Hayden Hatten in Round 7, Pick 25, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick255 Rnd7 Ryan Watts
No drama and no debate, Ryan Watts went about where he belonged in the 255th overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
