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

Priorities are a choice, and the Packers made a strange one, taking Calen Bullock at safety in slot 51 with edge rusher, quarterback and other spots crying out for the pick instead.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Tyler Nubin
In pick No. 19 they get a ballhawk on the back end at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick40 Rnd2 Nate Wiggins
Good price on Nate Wiggins in pick No. 40, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick51 Rnd2 Calen Bullock
A curious use of No. 51. Edge rusher, quarterback and other spots needed the pick; a safety in Calen Bullock did not.
Pick83 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at the 83rd pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick88 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
They took Dominick Puni at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick119 Rnd4 Junior Colson
Junior Colson in slot 119 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick135 Rnd4 Cade Stover
No drama and no debate, Cade Stover went about where he belonged in pick 135. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
