Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in pick 246 lands the Packers a B, Restrepo and all.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Xavier Restrepo, the No. 223 name on the board, stolen at the 246th pick.

The Smith pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, running back and other spots. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get an island corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
Troy Fautanu in the Round 2 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The roster fit checks out.
Pick57 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Taking Chris Braswell in No. 57 is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick88 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
A straight-up fair deal on Sedrick Van Pran at the 88th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick92 Rnd3 Maason Smith
A curious use of the 92nd pick. Quarterback, running back and other spots needed the pick; a DT-EDGE in Maason Smith did not.
Pick125 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
They did well to land Khyree Jackson in pick 125, just ahead of his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick135 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams in slot 135 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick203 Rnd6 Darius Muasau
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Darius Muasau at pick No. 203. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick217 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers at slot 217 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick219 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern at the 219th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick246 Rnd7 Xavier Restrepo
A wide receiver of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 26 is the definition of value, full stop. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
