Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Kalen King at the 88th overall pick, a reach of 51 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

Harden falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
They reached a country mile for Kingsley Suamataia at Round 2, Pick 9, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick58 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske in pick No. 58 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick88 Rnd3 Kalen King
Kalen King at slot 88 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick91 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
A slide stopped in the 91st overall pick, with Mike Sainristil worth more than the price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick126 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams in pick 126 is fair value, right on his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick169 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Taking Mason McCormick in Round 5, Pick 33 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. The roster fit checks out.
Pick202 Rnd6 Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. at pick No. 202 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick219 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
No edge and no loss on Frank Gore Jr. in the Round 6 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Ryan Flournoy
You do not let a wide receiver like Ryan Flournoy reach pick 245 and blink. They did not. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick255 Rnd7 Myles Harden
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Myles Harden in No. 255, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
