Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Packers, and a B- to prove it.

The Packers did not so much draft Edefuan Ulofoshio as overpay for him, 27 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In slot 25 they get a long-term starter on the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kalen King
Kalen King in pick No. 41 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick57 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Good price on Kingsley Suamataia in the 57th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick88 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
A clean, defensible pick in pick 88 with a little surplus value in Mike Sainristil. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick92 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
They paid sticker price for Zak Zinter in Round 3, Pick 29, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick125 Rnd4 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at No. 125 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick135 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen in the Round 4 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick203 Rnd6 Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau at the 203rd overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick217 Rnd6 Taulia Tagovailoa
Taulia Tagovailoa in Round 6, Pick 42 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick219 Rnd6 Daequan Hardy
Daequan Hardy at No. 219 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick246 Rnd7 DeMonte Capehart
DeMonte Capehart at the 246th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The roster fit checks out.
