Grade Jaden Crumedy
Your grade joins the crowd-sourced Fan Verdict.
On the field, Jaden Crumedy grades out as a shaky DT for Green Bay Packers (D+ Performance). That places him 165th of 216 graded defensive tackles. Against that production, his deal reads as fairly priced on the Contract Value Index (C-) — the team is paying below what the play would command. The public read is negative (D+ Sentiment), drawn from current news and social signal rather than the box score.

Among DT contracts at this AAV tier, Jaden Crumedy earns a C- Contract Value Index. At $1.075M annually on a one-year rookie deal, the 25-year-old second-year player is priced appropriately for his production level—the 2025 season saw him appear in just three games with two tackles, a depth-piece role that aligns perfectly with replacement-level compensation. For a sixth-round 2024 draft pick operating as rotational interior lineman depth, this contract carries no cap burden and poses zero dead-cap risk; the Packers are essentially maintaining a low-cost organizational option while signaling no immediate expectations. The recent team moves—signing multiple cornerbacks and a wide receiver while releasing veteran linemen—reinforce that Green Bay views Crumedy as ballast rather than a core defensive piece, which contextualizes the modest AAV as a fair market read on a developmental defensive tackle still fighting to establish legitimacy in the league. His path forward depends entirely on generating meaningful production in camp and the preseason; absent that, the CVI reflects an accurate valuation of a depth contributor with limited leverage and minimal margin for error heading into 2026.
Other same-position deals the Contract Value Index also places in the C band — a quick read on where Jaden's contract sits relative to comparable money.
Jaden Crumedy is a second-year defensive tackle for Green Bay, still carving out a defined role on a competitive Packers defensive front. Earning an overall grade of D+, Crumedy sits well below the standard expected of a reliable interior presence at this level. At 25, the developmental window remains open, but meaningful progress must come soon. The numbers tell a sobering story — Crumedy averages just 0.67 tackles per game, compared to the NFL average of 2.30 and an elite benchmark of 3.65. That gap reflects limited snaps, inconsistent impact, and difficulty asserting himself against experienced offensive linemen. His season trend compounds concern, sliding from a D in 2024 to an outright F in 2025, suggesting regression rather than growth. Think of him as a raw project resembling early-career depth pieces Green Bay has developed quietly before — but the runway is shortening. If Crumedy cannot demonstrate consistent penetration and tackle production in training camp and preseason 2026, his roster spot becomes genuinely precarious.
Jaden Crumedy ranks 165th of 216 graded defensive tackles by performance. That slots Jaden between James Ester (D+) just ahead and Derrick Nnadi (D+) just behind.

Derrick NnadiIndianapolis ColtsRecent headlines push Jaden Crumedy's sentiment grade to a D+, with Green Bay's broader season shaping the read. The media narrative around the 25-year-old second-year defensive tackle treats him as organizational ballast rather than prospect—his $1.1M AAV extension reads as a routine depth move, not a vote of confidence in emerging talent. After two seasons with just 0.5 sacks and limited production, Crumedy's on-field reality mirrors the tepid coverage: the 2025 season saw him appear in just three games with two tackles, a profile that screams replacement-level contributor rather than developmental edge. The Packers' recent moves—signing cornerbacks and a wide receiver while cutting veteran linemen like James Ester—suggest the organization isn't banking heavily on Crumedy as a core defensive piece, a signal that filters directly into how media and fans perceive his roster status. The lack of fanfare surrounding his retention, combined with Green Bay sitting at 9-7-1 heading into a critical offseason, leaves Crumedy operating well below public awareness, fighting an uphill battle just to lock down a spot come September.
