Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesC FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Packers: B-.

The Packers spent real capital to be 101 picks early on Tanner Mordecai, and the board is going to hold them to it. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Magee. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In No. 25 they get a potential shutdown corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Graham Barton in pick 41 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick58 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson in the Round 2 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick91 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
Taking Blake Fisher in the 91st overall pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick99 Rnd3 Will Shipley
A real head-scratcher, Will Shipley in Round 3, Pick 36 is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick126 Rnd4 Renardo Green
Somehow Renardo Green was still sitting there in pick No. 126, and they pounced on premier safety value. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick154 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
A edge rusher of that caliber at Round 5, Pick 18 is the definition of value, full stop. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick169 Rnd5 Elijah Jones
They robbed the room for Elijah Jones here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick202 Rnd6 Tanner McLachlan
Tanner McLachlan at slot 202 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee in pick No. 219 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick224 Rnd7 Blake Watson
The board fumbled Blake Watson all the way to No. 224, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick237 Rnd7 Bub Means
A tidy bit of business in the 237th overall pick, where Bub Means graded well above the range. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick245 Rnd7 Tanner Mordecai
They reached into another round for Tanner Mordecai, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
