Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesF FutureA-
The Packers lost the trade table, and the C tells the story.

The Packers went off the board in a big way for Joe Milton III, 37 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C in the wash.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

So much rides on Tyler Nubin that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Tyler Nubin
In pick No. 31 they get a two-high chess piece, reach and all. More want than need.
Pick48 Rnd2 Junior Colson
Junior Colson at Round 2, Pick 16 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in No. 58 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Trey Benson
A straight-up fair deal on Trey Benson at the Round 3 slot, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick99 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in slot 99 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick112 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
They paid sticker price for Tyler Davis in the 112th pick, and that is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick127 Rnd4 Josh Newton
By-the-book stuff, Josh Newton at Round 4, Pick 27 squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick129 Rnd4 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson at the 129th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick152 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
Fair-plus on Tykee Smith, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick162 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in No. 162 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick168 Rnd5 Elijah Jones
They left a pile of value on the table to take Elijah Jones this early at slot 168. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick204 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
They went early on Gabe Hall in pick No. 204, and the value did not follow. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick209 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
A real head-scratcher, Jordan Magee in pick 209 is miles ahead of his ranking. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick216 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
Rasheen Ali at the 216th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick243 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace at slot 243 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick246 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
They paid up for Joshua Cephus at No. 246 when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick251 Rnd7 Solomon Byrd
Solomon Byrd at the Round 7 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
