Draft Grade — Packers
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers landed square in the muddy middle: C+.

The tape said wait; the Packers did not. Cole Bishop went at the Round 4 slot, a good 25 picks before the board was ready. For now it grades a C+, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

If T'Vondre Sweat and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 T'Vondre Sweat
In the 9th pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in pick 41 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick43 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
A conviction pick on Cooper DeJean at the Round 2 slot that the board grades a round light. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick73 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
Good price on Chris Braswell in pick No. 73, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick82 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
They paid a round early for Payton Wilson in No. 82, more than the board wanted. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick109 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop in Round 4, Pick 9 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick135 Rnd4 Mike Sainristil
They liked Mike Sainristil enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 135. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
