Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Packers: B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Packers took Dwight McGlothern at Round 6, Pick 44, roughly 30 spots before his name belonged. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. The Green pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kamren Kinchens
In slot 25 they get a downhill hitter at safety, even if it was a touch early.
Pick41 Rnd2 Byron Murphy II
No edge and no loss on Byron Murphy II in pick 41; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in Round 2, Pick 25 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick88 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at the 88th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick91 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil slid further than he should have, and pick No. 91 is lovely value for the cornerback. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick125 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
They paid sticker price for Justin Eboigbe in the 125th pick, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick135 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at slot 135 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick203 Rnd6 Omar Speights
Omar Speights at Round 6, Pick 28 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick217 Rnd6 Jalen Green
Jalen Green slipping to the Round 6 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick219 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dwight McGlothern this early at the 219th overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick246 Rnd7 Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse in pick 246 is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
