Green Bay Packers

A sensible, unshowy class lands the Packers a B-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: John Emery Jr., 97 picks early at the 246th overall pick. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

Baker at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Spending an early pick on safety with quarterback and tight end open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Quinyon Mitchell · CB · rank 31
In the Round 1 slot they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.10 · Pick 42 · Calen Bullock · S · rank 46
They took Calen Bullock at par in slot 42, which is nothing to complain about. A minor itch, scratched.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 64
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Javon Bullard in No. 57 leaves quarterback and tight end for later.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · McKinnley Jackson · DL · rank 88
By-the-book stuff, McKinnley Jackson at the 88th pick squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Bucky Irving · RB · rank 93
Bucky Irving in pick No. 91 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.8 · Pick 108 · Darius Robinson · DL-EDGE · rank 121
Darius Robinson in the 108th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 135
Cedric Gray in Round 4, Pick 25 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Max Melton · CB · rank 111
Circle this one: Max Melton at the Round 4 slot is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Ethan Driskell · OT · rank 186
Nice patience on Ethan Driskell, who had no business lasting to the 203rd overall pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Trevor Keegan · OG · rank 234
A reach for Trevor Keegan in slot 217; a little patience would have been rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Javon Baker · WR · rank 180
Javon Baker at pick 219 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The roster fit checks out.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · John Emery Jr. · RB · rank 343
They reached into another round for John Emery Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
