Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers won the night they stopped Franklin from sliding. Grade: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Packers watched Zakhari Franklin slide 26 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. No fireworks, but a solid B.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In the Round 1 slot they get juice off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
You do not let an offensive lineman like Amarius Mims reach the 41st pick and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick51 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
By-the-book stuff, Tyler Guyton at the 51st overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick83 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum in Round 3, Pick 19 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick92 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson slid further than he should have, and pick No. 92 is lovely value for the running back. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick119 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
A slide stopped in No. 119, with Tommy Eichenberg worth more than the price. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick135 Rnd4 Nehemiah Pritchett
A clean, defensible pick in pick 135 with a little surplus value in Nehemiah Pritchett. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick197 Rnd6 Steve Linton
Steve Linton at slot 197 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick217 Rnd6 Sheridan Jones
Sheridan Jones at the 217th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick219 Rnd6 Darius Muasau
Somehow Darius Muasau was still sitting there in slot 219, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick240 Rnd7 Zakhari Franklin
Steal is underselling it; Zakhari Franklin at pick 240 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
