Glutton for self-punishment, Yahoo’s Eric Edholm went back to take a fresh look at his 2019 draft grades.

At the time, he gave the Packers a C-plus for their haul of outside linebacker Rashan Gary and safety Darnell Savage in the first round, guard Elgton Jenkins in the second round, tight end Jace Sternberger in the third round, defensive tackle Kingsley Keke in the fifth round, cornerback Ka’dar Hollman and running back Dexter Williams in the sixth round and inside linebacker Ty Summers in the seventh round.

Edholm called Savage the Packers’ best pick and Gary their worst. With Gary, Edholm noted his mediocre production at Michigan and how his skill-set mimicked those of the outside linebackers they had added in free agency, Za’Darius Smith and Preston Smith.

“There’s nothing to gush over and nothing to hate here, despite Packers fans griping about how the first round worked out,” Edholm wrote. “The first four picks add depth and competition to trouble spots in recent years, augmenting what the team did in free agency, and Keke and Summers might have been nice Day 3 value picks. And though we would have liked to see a pass catcher and an offensive tackle added higher in the mix, the Packers did OK for themselves overall, even with this class lacking a hang-your-hat pick.”
