Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Packers a B.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Packers reached some 47 spots for Joe Milton III, and value like that does not grow back.

They banked enough surplus on Rouse to cover a lot of smaller sins. The Wallace pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with tight end still on the board.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick34 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims slid further than he should have, and Round 2, Pick 2 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. The roster fit checks out.
Pick44 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They took Edgerrin Cooper at par in the 44th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick60 Rnd2 Max Melton
Max Melton at pick 60 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick68 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. in No. 68 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick88 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson at the 88th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91 Rnd3 Roger Rosengarten
By-the-book stuff, Roger Rosengarten at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick112 Rnd4 Christian Mahogany
Value with a capital V on Christian Mahogany in the 112th pick, a genuine coup. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
Good price on Jarrian Jones in No. 126, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick133 Rnd4 Trevin Wallace
Of all the spots to shop, they chose linebacker. Trevin Wallace in pick No. 133 leaves tight end for later.
Pick137 Rnd5 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson in pick 137 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick169 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at the Round 5 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick179 Rnd6 Cedric Johnson
They paid a round early for Cedric Johnson in slot 179, more than the board wanted. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick192 Rnd6 Dominique Hampton
Dominique Hampton at the 192nd overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick202 Rnd6 Walter Rouse
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Walter Rouse in Round 6, Pick 27, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd6 Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor in the Round 6 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick245 Rnd7 Nick Gargiulo
Nick Gargiulo at the 245th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick255 Rnd7 Jaylon Carlies
A reach for Jaylon Carlies in the 255th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
