Draft Grade — Packers
Overall

FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Packers a B-. There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Packers started one anyway for Eric Gentry, 32 picks ahead of schedule. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.
Spending an early pick on safety with quarterback, wide receiver and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. However the rest shakes out, Melton at that price is a win they earned. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Quinyon Mitchell
In the Round 1 slot they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41
Rnd2
Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens in pick 41 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick57
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in the 57th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick88
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
Nice patience on Cooper Beebe, who had no business lasting to pick No. 88. The roster fit checks out.
Pick90
Rnd3
Leonard Taylor III
They talked themselves into Leonard Taylor III at No. 90, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick91
Rnd3
Bucky Irving
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bucky Irving. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick125
Rnd4
Cole Bishop
A want over a need in the Round 4 slot: Cole Bishop adds a safety while quarterback, wide receiver and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick133
Rnd4
Max Melton
They robbed the room for Max Melton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick135
Rnd4
Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright in the 135th pick 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.
Pick203
Rnd6
Christian Jones
A reasonable price with a little left over, Christian Jones in Round 6, Pick 28. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick217
Rnd6
J.J. Weaver
A premium they did not need to pay, J.J. Weaver a notch or two before his time. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick219
Rnd6
Eric Gentry
Eric Gentry at the 219th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick246
Rnd7
Dwight McGlothern
They paid up for Dwight McGlothern at slot 246 when waiting would have done the job. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
