Grade the Packers draft. I give it an A. Filled needs and got 2 starters.

I gave it a B. A would have required Tyson Jackson. I'd actually grade it A-/B+I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
A thundercloud

It must be an A. It made wist happy..."Greatness is not an act... but a habit.Greatness is not an act... but a habit." -Greg JenningsComment

I gave it B. A would have been giving up only one of our 3rd round draft picks to Belicheat. Oh well, I am happy with it.
And I think we got 3 starters. Quinn Johnson could very easilty start.Comment

i went B
the price to trade up, is really the only thing keeping me from giving it an a
it was a damn good job from TTComment

I gave an A.
I love the Raji pick. He was my favorite player in this whole draft. I thought he and Andre Smith were the two best players, but both had character concerns.
I think Matthews is going to be an impact playmaker
I like the size and strength of Lang. I'm looking forward to building a more physical OL.
I like the physical play of the fullback. You smash a LB in the face in the first quarter and I don't think he's quite so eager to get hit again. I love physical football and this kid sounds like a tone setter. LB's love to hit running backs. It's nice to have a full back who can return the favor and remind them that it's not going to be a 60 minute stroll in the park. Huge fan of this pick.
The other guys all look like high upside projects. You get one or two to pan out and you have a solid back end of the draft.
All in all, the Packers took a bunch of tough, physical players. It looks like our defense becoming tougher and it also looks like our OL is going to be getting bigger and stronger over the next couple years Sitton and Lang work their way in.Formerly known as JustinHarrell.Comment

I'd give it a B+
The Raji pick was alright; the Raiders really reached for a guy that had to surprise both the Jags and Packers so I don't think either team figured they could have their pick of Monroe and Crabtree and then Raji and Crabtree. Del Rio nearly too Crab as well.
TT and the scouts fell in love with a guy in Matthews and went and got him; on one hand I gained respect for TT for doing that as I figured that would be too out of character for him to pull off.
On the other hand I still think he gave up too much to Bellicheat.
Matthews play is what can push this grade to an A if he ends up being a star
Also liked the OT picks and the FB pick as well; I do wish we'd have found a way to get a punter but in retrospect I guess I'd rather have the starting FBTERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD.

Re: Crab
I got a 12 pack that says Crabby does'nt make the all rookie team.Originally posted by BretskyComment

I would have to give it an "A" as well. The first two picks are impact players who should be contributions as rookies.
The rest are solid "maybies." As we all know, sometimes those obscure 6th and 7th round draft choices become pleasant surprises.Comment
