Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Pritchett should have been long gone. The Packers pounced, and earned a B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Packers watched Nehemiah Pritchett slide 26 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. They will need Taylor to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tyler Guyton
In the 25th pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A premium they did not need to pay, Edgerrin Cooper a notch or two before his time. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
A straight-up fair deal on Kingsley Suamataia at pick 58, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick88 Rnd3 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dadrion Taylor-Demerson. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick91 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
They did well to land Dominick Puni in pick No. 91, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick126 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
No drama and no debate, Isaac Guerendo went about where he belonged in slot 126. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick169 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
A cornerback of that caliber at Round 5, Pick 33 is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
Jared Wiley at the 202nd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick219 Rnd6 Trevin Wallace
They went early on Trevin Wallace in slot 219, and the value did not follow. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick245 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Trey Taylor. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick255 Rnd7 Bub Means
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Bub Means in pick 255. The roster fit checks out.
