Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Packers: B-.

There is reaching, and then there is Seth McLaughlin at the 200th pick. The Packers jumped the board by 40 and dared it to prove them wrong.

On value alone, Walker makes the weekend a net positive. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the Round 1 slot they get a run-stuffing presence up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
The board fumbled Jalon Walker all the way to Round 2, Pick 22, and they scooped it up. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jack Bech
Jack Bech at the 89th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick123 Rnd4 Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke in pick No. 123 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick160 Rnd5 Logan Brown
They did well to land Logan Brown in pick 160, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick167 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Pat Bryant in slot 167, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick200 Rnd6 Seth McLaughlin
This one needs a full-page explanation: Seth McLaughlin in slot 200, miles early. It fills a real need, too.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jacob Parrish
A tidy bit of business in the Round 7 slot, where Jacob Parrish graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick243 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
A clean, defensible pick in the 243rd pick with a little surplus value in Teddye Buchanan. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
By-the-book stuff, Jaylin Smith at Round 7, Pick 33 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
