Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureC+
A solid, sensible weekend for the Packers: B-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Devin Culp; the Packers did not wait, grabbing him 49 spots ahead at pick No. 255.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Kneeland value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. On the needs board they went 7 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In slot 25 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin at Round 2, Pick 9 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick58 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at No. 58 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick88 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
The board had Marshawn Kneeland higher than pick 88, and the edge rusher fell to them anyway. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91 Rnd3 DeWayne Carter
DeWayne Carter at the 91st pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick116 Rnd4 Javon Foster
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Javon Foster. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick126 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
No drama and no debate, Johnny Wilson went about where he belonged in Round 4, Pick 26. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick169 Rnd5 Dwight McGlothern
Nice patience on Dwight McGlothern, who had no business lasting to pick No. 169. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick202 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs in No. 202 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick219 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at the Round 6 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick245 Rnd7 Kimani Vidal
They took Kimani Vidal at par in pick 245, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick255 Rnd7 Devin Culp
A big swing on Devin Culp at the 255th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
