Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Packers.

The Packers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the Round 6 slot on Fadil Diggs a full 45 spots early. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Landing Belton that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In slot 23 they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jayden Higgins. It fills a real need, too.
Pick87 Rnd3 Ashton Gillotte
The board had cheaper options than Ashton Gillotte at pick 87, and it noticed. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick124 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
Nice patience on Anthony Belton, who had no business lasting to the 124th pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick159 Rnd5 CJ West
CJ West in No. 159 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick198 Rnd6 Fadil Diggs
Fadil Diggs at pick No. 198 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick237 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
They reached into another round for Teddye Buchanan, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick250 Rnd7 Nick Martin
A real head-scratcher, Nick Martin in pick 250 is miles ahead of his ranking. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
