Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers robbed the room for Devonshire. Final grade: B-.

When a board-topper like M.J. Devonshire slides to the 219th pick, you do not overthink it, and the Packers did not.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. They are betting Amegadjie proves the room right and everyone else wrong. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In pick No. 25 they get a blindside protector. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
No drama and no debate, Tyler Nubin went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at the 58th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick88 Rnd3 Max Melton
Nice patience on Max Melton, who had no business lasting to pick 88. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick91 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving at Round 3, Pick 28 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams in No. 126 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
A straight-up fair deal on Jordan Travis at slot 169, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick202 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington slipping to the 202nd pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick219 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
M.J. Devonshire in pick 219 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
The board had Michael Barrett higher than the 245th overall pick, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick255 Rnd7 Daijahn Anthony
You do not let a cornerback like Daijahn Anthony reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
