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

You build a draft on nights like this. LaDarius Henderson had no business being available in the 217th overall pick, and the Packers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

If Wright pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a wrecking ball inside, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson in slot 41 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick57 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
They barely believed it either: Tyler Nubin still on the board at the 57th overall pick. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick88 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Junior Colson at No. 88. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick91 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at the Round 3 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick125 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe in pick 125 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick135 Rnd4 Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright in pick No. 135 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick203 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
They robbed the room for Ty'Ron Hopper here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick217 Rnd6 LaDarius Henderson
The board fumbled LaDarius Henderson all the way to slot 217, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick219 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor in the 219th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick246 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
A reach on Dwight McGlothern in the 246th overall pick; the board had better options right there. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
