Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueD NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Some hits, some head-scratchers, and a C+ for the Packers.

The Packers put a flag in the ground for Jalen Rivers, 171 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Donovan Ezeiruaku
In Round 1, Pick 23 they get a double-digit-sack hope, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Elic Ayomanor
A conviction pick on Elic Ayomanor at No. 54 that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jacob Parrish
They reached into another round for Jacob Parrish, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick124 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Emery Jones Jr. at pick 124, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick159 Rnd5 Connor Colby
They talked themselves into Connor Colby at slot 159, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick198 Rnd6 Jalen Rivers
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jalen Rivers in pick No. 198, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
