Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers cashed the board's mistake on Williams: B-.

Somebody in pick No. 198 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Packers sat still while Kyle Williams, the No. 171 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

The cost of the Simpkins III reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Grey Zabel
In pick 23 they get an anchor for the offensive line, reach and all. A real need, handled.
Pick54 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery is a better player than the Round 2 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick87 Rnd3 Devin Neal
They did well to land Devin Neal in the 87th pick, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick124 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong in Round 4, Pick 22 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick159 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
No drama and no debate, Tommi Hill went about where he belonged in slot 159. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick198 Rnd6 Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams in the 198th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick237 Rnd7 Torricelli Simpkins III
A wild overpay on Torricelli Simpkins III in No. 237, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick250 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
Zeek Biggers in pick No. 250 is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
