Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers let Clark fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how De'Corian Clark got past him. The Packers do not have to explain a thing at Round 7, Pick 26. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

The Keegan reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the Round 1 slot they get a press-man option on the boundary, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
A clean, defensible pick in the 41st overall pick with a little surplus value in Kamren Kinchens. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick57 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson in pick No. 57 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick88 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. in No. 88 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Audric Estime
By-the-book stuff, Audric Estime at Round 3, Pick 28 squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick125 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at the 125th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick135 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster at slot 135 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It fills a real need, too.
Pick203 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
Value said wait; Trevor Keegan in pick 203 says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
Pick217 Rnd6 Maurice Smith
They reached a country mile for Maurice Smith at Round 6, Pick 42, and the board is aghast. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick219 Rnd6 Taulia Tagovailoa
They paid up for Taulia Tagovailoa at the 219th pick when waiting would have done the job. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick246 Rnd7 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark in pick No. 246 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
