Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Packers: B-.

The Packers bet big and early on Mason Reiger, 73 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. On value alone, Everette makes the weekend a net positive. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
A slide stopped in Round 2, Pick 20, with Caleb Banks worth more than the price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick95 Rnd3 Daylen Everette
Nice patience on Daylen Everette, who had no business lasting to No. 95. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick120 Rnd4 Mason Reiger
Mason Reiger at pick No. 120 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick131 Rnd4 Eli Raridon
No drama and no debate, Eli Raridon went about where he belonged in slot 131. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick160 Rnd5 Taylen Green
This one needs a full-page explanation: Taylen Green in the Round 5 slot, miles early. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick201 Rnd6 David Gusta
David Gusta in pick 201 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick236 Rnd7 Fa'alili Fa'amoe
A premium they did not need to pay, Fa'alili Fa'amoe a notch or two before his time. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick255 Rnd7 De'Zhaun Stribling
De'Zhaun Stribling in the Round 7 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
