Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers robbed the room for Bowry. Final grade: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Jude Bowry, the No. 121 name on the board, stolen at the Round 5 slot.

They are betting Payton proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Gennings Dunker
A straight-up fair deal on Gennings Dunker at pick No. 52, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick84 Rnd3 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter at slot 84 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick120 Rnd4 Will Lee III
Nothing to complain about; Will Lee III went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick160 Rnd5 Jude Bowry
Circle this one: Jude Bowry at No. 160 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick201 Rnd6 Cole Payton
Cole Payton at the Round 6 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick236 Rnd7 TJ Hall
A tidy bit of business in Round 7, Pick 20, where TJ Hall graded well above the range. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick255 Rnd7 John Michael Gyllenborg
John Michael Gyllenborg at the 255th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
