Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Packers cashed the board's mistake on Winston Jr.: B.

The trade table was a mismatch, and the Packers were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Winston Jr.. They will need Roberts to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In slot 30 they get a wrecking ball inside at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick55 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at the 87th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick89 Rnd3 Smael Mondon Jr.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Smael Mondon Jr. this early at Round 3, Pick 25. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick91 Rnd3 Charles Grant
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Charles Grant. The roster fit checks out.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
The board had cheaper options than Jacob Parrish at the 109th pick, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick124 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
They barely believed it either: Jared Wilson still on the board at No. 124. It fills a real need, too.
Pick125 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at slot 125 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick158 Rnd5 Damien Martinez
A straight-up fair deal on Damien Martinez at pick 158, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick159 Rnd5 Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts at the 159th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick169 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A conviction pick on Dont'e Thornton Jr. at Round 5, Pick 31 that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick198 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick250 Rnd7 Hunter Wohler
Hunter Wohler at the 250th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
