Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB- TradesC FutureB-
A mixed bag for the Packers, and a C+ to match.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Packers spent the 96th pick on Roger Rosengarten, a name the board had a full 39 spots lower. It nets out a thoroughly average C+.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. That Sundell pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They took Jackson Powers-Johnson at par in No. 25, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick48 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
The board had cheaper options than Braden Fiske at pick No. 48, and it noticed. It fills a real need, too.
Pick58 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Payton Wilson at pick 58 squarely in line with his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jaden Hicks in Round 3, Pick 25. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick91 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at slot 91 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick96 Rnd3 Roger Rosengarten
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Roger Rosengarten well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
A reach for Jarrian Jones in slot 126; a little patience would have been rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick169 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd in the 169th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick202 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
They liked Garret Greenfield enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 6 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee at the 212th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick219 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in Round 6, Pick 44 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick245 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
Value said wait; Joshua Cephus in No. 245 says they were not listening. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick255 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
They paid up for Trey Taylor at pick 255 when waiting would have done the job. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick256 Rnd7 Frank Crum
Frank Crum in pick No. 256 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick257 Rnd7 Jalen Sundell
A slide stopped in slot 257, with Jalen Sundell worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
