Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the 250th pick: the Packers steal Reed and grade out a B.

The Packers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Jaylen Reed fell into pick No. 250. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

Every board in the league had Simpkins III lower, and that gap is the story. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the Round 1 slot they get a true top target, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
A tidy bit of business in the 54th pick, where Jonah Savaiinaea graded well above the range. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick87 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at slot 87 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick124 Rnd4 Devin Neal
They will replay Devin Neal at pick No. 124 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick159 Rnd5 Logan Brown
Logan Brown in the 159th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick198 Rnd6 CJ West
A quiet steal in No. 198: CJ West for less than the market said. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick237 Rnd7 Torricelli Simpkins III
Torricelli Simpkins III in Round 7, Pick 21 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick250 Rnd7 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed in pick 250 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
