Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB TradesD+ FutureC+
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Packers: C+.

There is a lot to like until you notice edge rusher is still a hole. The Packers never got to the one that mattered most. It washes out to a C+, no better and no worse.

The Rivers steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They will need Everette to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick53 Rnd2 Daylen Everette
A premium they did not need to pay, Daylen Everette a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick79 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
A reasonable price with a little left over, Domonique Orange in slot 79. The roster fit checks out.
Pick121 Rnd4 Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling in Round 4, Pick 21 is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick160 Rnd5 Eric Rivers
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Eric Rivers in pick 160. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick202 Rnd6 Xavier Nwankpa
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Xavier Nwankpa at No. 202. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jamal Haynes
By-the-book stuff, Jamal Haynes at pick No. 256 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
