Green Bay Packers

The Packers got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D-.

Future B-

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Trevin Wallace, 94 picks early at the Round 5 slot. The math is unkind, and the D- follows.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

The Gore Jr. pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and quarterback is still a hole.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 27
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a potential shutdown corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.1 · Pick 33 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 61
A real head-scratcher, Kingsley Suamataia in the 33rd pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 49
A premium they did not need to pay, Edgerrin Cooper a notch or two before his time. A minor itch, scratched.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Jermaine Burton · WR · rank 56
Jermaine Burton at pick 58 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Cole Bishop · S · rank 104
The board had cheaper options than Cole Bishop at the 88th overall pick, and it noticed. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 98
Christian Mahogany at No. 91 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.37 · Pick 100 · Ben Sinnott · TE · rank 129
They reached a country mile for Ben Sinnott at slot 100, and the board is aghast. It fills a real need, too.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Jarrian Jones · CB · rank 136
Jarrian Jones at the 126th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.4 · Pick 140 · Trevin Wallace · LB · rank 234
A big swing on Trevin Wallace at pick No. 140, well ahead of any board in the building. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Khristian Boyd · DL-EDGE · rank 178
A reach for Khristian Boyd in Round 5, Pick 33; a little patience would have been rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Rasheen Ali · RB · rank 207
Rasheen Ali in the Round 6 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Garret Greenfield · OT · rank 217
By-the-book stuff, Garret Greenfield at No. 219 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Omar Brown · S · rank 285
A wild overpay on Omar Brown in the 245th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Frank Gore Jr. · RB · rank 229
Frank Gore Jr. at pick 255 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
