Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Packers: B-.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Packers walked out of the weekend still thin at edge rusher, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

Reaching for Zinter left real value on the table behind him. On value alone, Johnson makes the weekend a net positive.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the 25th overall pick they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They went early on Edgerrin Cooper in slot 41, and the value did not follow. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick58 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske at pick No. 58 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick88 Rnd3 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dadrion Taylor-Demerson. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick91 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in pick 91 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick126 Rnd4 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in Round 4, Pick 26 is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick169 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
The board had cheaper options than Ty'Ron Hopper at No. 169, and it noticed. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick202 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
They read the board right and Cornelius Johnson was the payoff at the Round 6 slot. The roster fit checks out.
Pick219 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield in pick No. 219 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick245 Rnd7 Rasheen Ali
Rasheen Ali at the Round 7 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick255 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
They took Tyler Owens at par in Round 7, Pick 35, which is nothing to complain about. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
