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

The Packers torched the value chart for Collin Oliver, taking him 73 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They banked enough surplus on Williams to cover a lot of smaller sins.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick50 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
The board had cheaper options than Azareye'h Thomas at slot 50, and it noticed. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick52 Rnd2 Elic Ayomanor
A straight-up fair deal on Elic Ayomanor at the 52nd pick, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jordan Burch
A big swing on Jordan Burch at pick No. 54, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick87 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick124 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips at the 124th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick159 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ajani Cornelius. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick198 Rnd6 Nohl Williams
Nohl Williams at the 198th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick237 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
A tidy bit of business in slot 237, where Isaac TeSlaa graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick250 Rnd7 Collin Oliver
This one needs a full-page explanation: Collin Oliver in pick No. 250, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
