Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC+ FutureB
Best value of the weekend goes to the Packers for Hadden: B-.

The Packers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Kamal Hadden fell into the Round 5 slot.

The Packers indulged a want in Smith while a need in quarterback, wide receiver and other spots stayed open. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Every board in the league had Benson lower, and that gap is the story.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at fair value.
Pick48 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They took Jackson Powers-Johnson at par in pick 48, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick57 Rnd2 Trey Benson
They liked Trey Benson enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 57. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick88 Rnd3 Maason Smith
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the 88th overall pick on Maason Smith with quarterback, wide receiver and other spots unsolved.
Pick92 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson at slot 92 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick125 Rnd4 Beau Brade
Beau Brade slid further than he should have, and Round 4, Pick 25 is lovely value for the safety. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick135 Rnd4 Cam Hart
By-the-book stuff, Cam Hart at the 135th pick squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick155 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
You do not let a cornerback like Kamal Hadden reach No. 155 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick203 Rnd6 Miyan Williams
Good price on Miyan Williams in the Round 6 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick217 Rnd6 Omar Speights
Value with a capital V on Omar Speights in No. 217, a genuine coup. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick219 Rnd6 J.J. Weaver
A straight-up fair deal on J.J. Weaver at Round 6, Pick 44, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick246 Rnd7 Donovan Jennings
No edge and no loss on Donovan Jennings in pick No. 246; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
