Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Packers did exactly that with Dwight McGlothern in No. 219. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Braswell. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kamren Kinchens
In the 25th overall pick they get a centerfielder for the defense, reach and all. More want than need.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They liked Jackson Powers-Johnson enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 41. It fills a real need, too.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at pick 57 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick88 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
The board fumbled Chris Braswell all the way to slot 88, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bucky Irving. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick125 Rnd4 Max Melton
A quiet steal in the 125th pick: Max Melton for less than the market said. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick135 Rnd4 Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick203 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
Gabe Hall at the 203rd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick217 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
Jase McClellan in Round 6, Pick 42 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick219 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dwight McGlothern this early at slot 219. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick246 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
They paid sticker price for Eric Gentry in pick No. 246, and that is fine. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
