Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesD FutureA
The Packers bled value on every deal, hence the B-.

The Trajan Jeffcoat pick is the one that will follow the Packers into the fall. They took him 53 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Pritchett. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick41 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 41, where Cooper DeJean graded well above the range. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick58 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Graham Barton in the 58th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick59 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
No drama and no debate, Payton Wilson went about where he belonged in the 59th pick. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick81 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick118 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones at Round 4, Pick 18 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick169 Rnd5 Walter Rouse
A reasonable price with a little left over, Walter Rouse in slot 169. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick192 Rnd6 Nehemiah Pritchett
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Nehemiah Pritchett in slot 192, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick202 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson slid further than he should have, and pick 202 is lovely value for the wide receiver. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick245 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
No edge and no loss on Brevyn Spann-Ford in Round 7, Pick 25; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick255 Rnd7 Trajan Jeffcoat
Trajan Jeffcoat at the 255th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
