Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedC+ TradesA- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Packers: B-.

The Packers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick No. 200 on DeSean Bishop a full 105 spots early. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

Stone falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick61 Rnd2 Kewan Lacy
Kewan Lacy slid further than he should have, and the Round 2 slot is lovely value for the running back. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
Pick84 Rnd3 David Stone
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, David Stone in Round 3, Pick 20, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick93 Rnd3 Mario Craver
They paid sticker price for Mario Craver in pick No. 93, and that is fine. A fine player at a spot low on the priority list.
Pick98 Rnd3 Terrance Carter Jr.
A reach for Terrance Carter Jr. in No. 98; a little patience would have been rewarded. It fits a board better than it fits this team.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jaylen McClain
Jaylen McClain at pick 113 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
Pick123 Rnd4 DJ McKinney
DJ McKinney at the 123rd overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick157 Rnd5 Justin Evans
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Justin Evans at Round 5, Pick 20 is the proof. The roster fit checks out.
Pick166 Rnd5 Blake Frazier
A reach on Blake Frazier in the 166th pick; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick170 Rnd5 Kam Franklin
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kam Franklin in slot 170, miles early. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick171 Rnd5 Gunner Stockton
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Gunner Stockton. It fills a real need, too.
Pick198 Rnd6 Lawson Luckie
Lawson Luckie in pick No. 198 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
Pick200 Rnd6 DeSean Bishop
A real head-scratcher, DeSean Bishop in pick 200 is miles ahead of his ranking. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
Pick216 Rnd6 Edwin Spillman
Edwin Spillman at the 216th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster reasoning here is anyone's guess.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jaleel Johnson
They reached a country mile for Jaleel Johnson at the Round 7 slot, and the board is aghast. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick240 Rnd7 Jordan Faison
The board had cheaper options than Jordan Faison at pick 240, and it noticed. This was not a hole anyone had circled.
