Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers robbed the room for Alexander. Final grade: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Darius Alexander had no business being available in the 160th pick, and the Packers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Every board in the league had Hill lower, and that gap is the story. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In Round 1, Pick 23 they get a bendy edge with upside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Nothing to complain about; Aireontae Ersery went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick87 Rnd3 Savion Williams
A reach for Savion Williams in slot 87; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick123 Rnd4 Tommi Hill
They paid a round early for Tommi Hill in the 123rd overall pick, more than the board wanted. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick160 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at pick No. 160 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
