Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA FutureB
Best value of the weekend goes to the Packers for Smith-Wade: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Chau Smith-Wade at the 203rd pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The Wright pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The back end got a real overhaul.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Ennis Rakestraw Jr. at pick No. 32 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Calen Bullock
No drama and no debate, Calen Bullock went about where he belonged in the 41st overall pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in No. 57 is fair value, right on his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick88 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
They took Bucky Irving at par in the 88th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91 Rnd3 Darius Robinson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Darius Robinson well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick93 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in pick 93 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick94 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
The board fumbled Brenden Rice all the way to the Round 3 slot, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jaylen Wright
A wild overpay on Jaylen Wright in slot 125, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick132 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster in pick 132 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The roster fit checks out.
Pick203 Rnd6 Chau Smith-Wade
Taking Chau Smith-Wade in slot 203 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick217 Rnd6 J.J. Weaver
They went early on J.J. Weaver in pick No. 217, and the value did not follow. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick219 Rnd6 Demani Richardson
Demani Richardson at No. 219 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick246 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
They paid up for Dwight McGlothern at the 246th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
