Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesA FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Packers, and a B to prove it.

Nobody else had Mohamed Kamara anywhere near pick No. 91. The Packers did, by 42 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

Spending an early pick on linebacker with quarterback and tight end open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In pick 26 they get protection for the quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin at Round 2, Pick 9 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick58 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Payton Wilson in pick No. 58. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick88 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
Of all the spots to shop, they chose linebacker. Cedric Gray in slot 88 leaves quarterback and tight end for later.
Pick89 Rnd3 Cam Hart
A premium they did not need to pay, Cam Hart a notch or two before his time. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick91 Rnd3 Mohamed Kamara
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Mohamed Kamara well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
They jumped the gun on Jarrian Jones, taking him earlier than his grade liked. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
They reached into another round for Tanor Bortolini, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick202 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Gabe Hall. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick219 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
Rasheen Ali in slot 219 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick220 Rnd6 Ryan Watts
Ryan Watts in pick No. 220 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick245 Rnd7 Anim Dankwah
Anim Dankwah at the 245th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick255 Rnd7 De'Corian Clark
This one needs a full-page explanation: De'Corian Clark in pick 255, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
