Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Packers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

Hard to follow the map here. The Packers bypassed edge rusher, quarterback and other spots to take Malik Mustapha at Round 4, Pick 35, a spot they had covered.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The cost of the Jones reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Jones.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In No. 25 they get a potential shutdown corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin is a better player than the 41st pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at Round 2, Pick 25 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick88 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at No. 88 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick92 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
A straight-up fair deal on Zak Zinter at pick No. 92, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick125 Rnd4 MarShawn Lloyd
By-the-book stuff, MarShawn Lloyd at slot 125 squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick135 Rnd4 Malik Mustapha
A surprising call. With edge rusher, quarterback and other spots still to address, they spent the Round 4 slot on Malik Mustapha, a safety they were not short of.
Pick203 Rnd6 Christian Jones
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Christian Jones in the 203rd overall pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick217 Rnd6 Matthew Jones
They liked Matthew Jones enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 217. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick219 Rnd6 Joshua Cephus
Joshua Cephus at the 219th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick246 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
A tidy little value on Eric Gentry in No. 246, a step better than break-even. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
