Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers let Bullock fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

When a board-topper like Calen Bullock slides to the 169th overall pick, you do not overthink it, and the Packers did not.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Every board in the league had Lee lower, and that gap is the story. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at the 41st pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick58 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Nice patience on Chris Braswell, who had no business lasting to Round 2, Pick 26. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick88 Rnd3 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at pick No. 88 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick91 Rnd3 DeWayne Carter
The board had cheaper options than DeWayne Carter at slot 91, and it noticed. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick126 Rnd4 Trey Benson
Steal is underselling it; Trey Benson at No. 126 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick169 Rnd5 Calen Bullock
Circle this one: Calen Bullock at pick 169 is a fall that decides a draft. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick202 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
They went early on Caedan Wallace in the 202nd overall pick, and the value did not follow. It fills a real need, too.
Pick219 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at slot 219 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick245 Rnd7 Drake Nugent
Somehow Drake Nugent was still sitting there in the Round 7 slot, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick255 Rnd7 Matt Lee
They reached a country mile for Matt Lee at Round 7, Pick 35, and the board is aghast. A need, and now a little less of one.
