Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB
The Packers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

Nobody else had Aaron Lewis anywhere near slot 231. The Packers did, by 69 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

That Rice pick is the receipt they will wave around later. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
Taliese Fuaga in slot 26 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They took Jackson Powers-Johnson at par in pick 57, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick64 Rnd2 Blake Corum
They went early on Blake Corum in the 64th overall pick, and the value did not follow. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick86 Rnd3 Jermaine Burton
They will replay Jermaine Burton at the 86th pick for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick88 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
A cornerback of that caliber at the Round 3 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick89 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau at No. 89 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick95 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
They liked Braelon Allen enough to skip the value, taking him in the 95th overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick125 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at slot 125 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick135 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Value with a capital V on Cam Hart in the 135th pick, a genuine coup. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick164 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
The board had Cole Bishop higher than Round 5, Pick 28, and the safety fell to them anyway. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick169 Rnd5 Xavier Thomas
A big swing on Xavier Thomas at pick No. 169, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick188 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
Somehow Jonah Monheim was still sitting there in the Round 6 slot, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick203 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in No. 203 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick217 Rnd6 Desmond Evans
Desmond Evans in pick 217 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick219 Rnd6 Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau in the 219th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick231 Rnd7 Aaron Lewis
They left a pile of value on the table to take Aaron Lewis this early at Round 7, Pick 11. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick246 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
You do not let a cornerback like Sheridan Jones reach No. 246 and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick253 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Eric Gentry at the Round 7 slot. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
