Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

Every other box got a look, but quarterback did not. The Packers will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with.

The Hanson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Jones.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the Round 1 slot they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard at Round 2, Pick 9 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick58 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in No. 58 is fair value, right on his grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick88 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson at pick 88 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Gabriel Murphy
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Gabriel Murphy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Elijah Jones at the 126th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick169 Rnd5 Dwight McGlothern
A quiet steal in the 169th pick: Dwight McGlothern for less than the market said. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick202 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
A reach on Garret Greenfield in pick No. 202; the board had better options right there. It fills a real need, too.
Pick219 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
Nothing to complain about; Caedan Wallace went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick245 Rnd7 C.J. Hanson
C.J. Hanson at No. 245 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick255 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
They went early on Joshua Cephus in pick No. 255, and the value did not follow. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
