Draft Grade — Packers
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureD
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Packers to a D+.

The war room fell hard for Dayon Hayes, and it showed at the 250th overall pick: 65 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Gordon II. They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In pick No. 23 they get a ballhawk on the outside, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In the 27th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value.
Pick39 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Derrick Harmon slipping to Round 2, Pick 7 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The roster fit checks out.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jalon Walker at the 41st pick is the proof. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick87 Rnd3 Charles Grant
They paid sticker price for Charles Grant in No. 87, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick124 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton in pick 124 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick159 Rnd5 Tyler Cooper
Tyler Cooper in the 159th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick198 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II in No. 198 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick237 Rnd7 Ethan Downs
They reached into another round for Ethan Downs, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick250 Rnd7 Dayon Hayes
Value said wait; Dayon Hayes in Round 7, Pick 34 says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
