Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers won the night they stopped Bullock from sliding. Grade: B.

Call it larceny. Calen Bullock sat on the board until pick No. 75, and the Packers did not need to be asked twice.

With quarterback and interior defensive lineman unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

The Berger reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 11th pick they get a building block for the line. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Kris Abrams-Draine
A tidy little value on Kris Abrams-Draine in pick No. 39, a step better than break-even. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick43 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Fair-plus on Keon Coleman, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick75 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock in Round 3, Pick 11 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick82 Rnd3 Landon Jackson
Steal is underselling it; Landon Jackson at the Round 3 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick111 Rnd4 Rod Moore
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback and interior defensive lineman to take Rod Moore, a safety that was not the priority.
Pick135 Rnd4 Shemar Turner
They paid sticker price for Shemar Turner in pick 135, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick189 Rnd6 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander in the 189th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick217 Rnd6 Dallin Holker
The board had Dallin Holker higher than pick No. 217, and the tight end fell to them anyway. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick219 Rnd6 Jalen Berger
Value said wait; Jalen Berger in the 219th pick says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick232 Rnd7 Darius Muasau
A quiet steal in the 232nd overall pick: Darius Muasau for less than the market said. A minor itch, scratched.
