Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

There is reaching, and then there is Joe Milton III at slot 169. The Packers jumped the board by 31 and dared it to prove them wrong. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. The Cooper pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
Good price on Quinyon Mitchell in the Round 1 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick41 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on T'Vondre Sweat. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick58 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Edgerrin Cooper in the 58th pick. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick88 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
No edge and no loss on Khyree Jackson in Round 3, Pick 25; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick91 Rnd3 MarShawn Lloyd
They paid sticker price for MarShawn Lloyd in No. 91, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kitan Oladapo
A big swing on Kitan Oladapo at the 126th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick169 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in Round 5, Pick 33 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick202 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent in the 202nd overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The roster fit checks out.
Pick219 Rnd6 Trevin Wallace
They paid a round early for Trevin Wallace in No. 219, more than the board wanted. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick245 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor in pick 245 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick255 Rnd7 Jalen Sundell
A quiet steal in slot 255: Jalen Sundell for less than the market said. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
