Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers let Wallace fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Packers watched Caedan Wallace slide 32 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

Gray has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In No. 25 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 2 slot with a little surplus value in Jordan Morgan. It fills a real need, too.
Pick58 Rnd2 Christian Haynes
By-the-book stuff, Christian Haynes at the 58th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick88 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Fair-plus on Calen Bullock, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick91 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
They reached into another round for Cedric Gray, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick126 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Nice patience on Elijah Jones, who had no business lasting to pick No. 126. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick169 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at the 169th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick202 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
They talked themselves into Gabe Hall at Round 6, Pick 27, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
No drama and no debate, Jordan Magee went about where he belonged in the 219th overall pick. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick245 Rnd7 Caedan Wallace
Somehow Caedan Wallace was still sitting there in slot 245, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick255 Rnd7 Kimani Vidal
A straight-up fair deal on Kimani Vidal at pick 255, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
