Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueD+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers won the night they stopped Castro from sliding. Grade: C+.

Thirty-one other rooms let Sebastian Castro slide, and the Packers were the ones holding the card at pick 251. Highway robbery. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C+.

They will need Bryant to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Hit on Josh Simmons and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In pick No. 23 they get a building block for the line. A real need, handled.
Pick54 Rnd2 Cobee Bryant
They talked themselves into Cobee Bryant at the Round 2 slot, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jackson Slater
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jackson Slater. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick123 Rnd4 Kobe King
Kobe King in pick 123 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick160 Rnd5 Gunnar Helm
Steal is underselling it; Gunnar Helm at Round 5, Pick 21 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick200 Rnd6 Marcus Yarns
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Marcus Yarns well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick239 Rnd7 Will Sheppard
They reached a country mile for Will Sheppard at the 239th overall pick, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick251 Rnd7 Sebastian Castro
Sebastian Castro at the 251st pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor itch, scratched.
