Final grades for the Green Bay Packers' 2024 NFL Draft class

The Green Bay Packers finalized their draft class with 11 total picks. The process started with a relative surprise decision, not because of Jordan Morgan specifically, but because who was still on the board in that moment. Check out the final grades, pick by pick.

First round, pick 25 - OT Jordan Morgan, Arizona

• Grade: B

Morgan is an ideal Packers type. Athletic and versatile, experienced and viewed as a good leader. However, he was the 36th player on the consensus big board and it's uncertain if he can play tackle at a high level because of his short arms.

The pick itself makes sense, but maybe the Packers could have traded down before executing it. At that point, offensive linemen like Graham Barton and Tyler Guyton were also on the board — plus defensive backs Cooper DeJean and Kool-Aid McKinstry.

The pick was good after all, but the process to get there could have been better.

Second round, pick 45 - LB Edgerrin Cooper, Texas A&M

• Grade: A-

Edgerrin Cooper is too similar to Quay Walker and that might be a problem during the season. But the value is hard to question, especially because the Packers were able to trade down from 41, adding fifth- and sixth-round picks from the New Orleans Saints.

Cooper is the best off-ball linebacker of the class, with extreme athleticism and aggresiveness. He needs to get better at identifying offensive patterns, but he's a viable immediate starter with solid developmental potential.

Second round, pick 58 - S Javon Bullard, Georgia

• Grade: B

Safety was a huge need, even after the Packers added Xavier McKinney in free agency. And they addressed that need with Bullard, a hard-hitting box safety. He's slightly undersized, but was probably the best option in what is a flawed class.

Third round, pick 88 - RB Marshawn Lloyd, USC

• Grade: B-

There were still several solid running back options on the board for day 3, so Gutekunst could have waited a little longer to take one. However, the beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as respected people like Daniel Jeremiah think Lloyd is the best running back of the class. The area in which he was taken is fair to his talent, so it was a decent selection after all.

Third round, pick 91 - LB Ty'Ron Hopper, Missouri

• Grade: C-

It's a need, and that's probably the reason why the Packers took him. But it was by fair the biggest Packers reach of the draft, taking the 173rd prospect of the consensus big board in the third round. He might become a solid piece and a special teams contributor, but it's hard to justify this selection so high. The good part is that Hopper can be a useful pass rusher in blitz packages, where he was productive in college.

Fourth round, pick 111 - S Evan Williams, Oregon

• Grade: C

Evan Williams is a good prospect, and we put him on our hidden gems of the draft for the Packers. That being said, he was the 225th player on the consensus big board. He was projected to go later on day 3, so it was a reach for Brian Gutekunst, which compromises the pick grade in terms of process, even though Williams can certainly become a useful piece.
