Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB
The Packers let Restrepo fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

Call it larceny. Xavier Restrepo sat on the board until pick No. 246, and the Packers did not need to be asked twice.

They will answer for taking DT-EDGE early while quarterback, tight end and other spots went begging. Every board in the league had Corum lower, and that gap is the story.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In pick No. 25 they get protection for the quarterback, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick46 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Fair-plus on Xavier Legette, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick59 Rnd2 Blake Corum
A real head-scratcher, Blake Corum in the Round 2 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick88 Rnd3 Maason Smith
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback, tight end and other spots to take Maason Smith, a DT-EDGE that was not the priority.
Pick92 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
A tidy little value on Christian Mahogany in slot 92, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick125 Rnd4 Beau Brade
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Beau Brade at pick 125. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick135 Rnd4 Jaylin Simpson
A premium they did not need to pay, Jaylin Simpson a notch or two before his time. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick137 Rnd5 Javon Foster
Good price on Javon Foster in No. 137, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick153 Rnd5 Cedric Johnson
Cedric Johnson in pick 153 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick156 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop is a better player than the Round 5 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick203 Rnd6 Xavier Thomas
The board had cheaper options than Xavier Thomas at slot 203, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd6 Omar Speights
A reasonable price with a little left over, Omar Speights in pick No. 217. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick219 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern at the 219th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick246 Rnd7 Xavier Restrepo
Xavier Restrepo at the 246th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick248 Rnd7 Carson Steele
They paid sticker price for Carson Steele in No. 248, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
