Hard to follow the map here. The Packers bypassed edge rusher, quarterback and other spots to take James Williams at the Round 4 slot, a spot they had covered. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.
For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. Getting Morgan where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.
Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick-by-Pick
In No. 21 they get a sticky cover corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Jordan Morgan at pick 41 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
No drama and no debate, Javon Bullard went about where he belonged in slot 64. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Trey Benson at pick No. 76 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
By-the-book stuff, Zak Zinter at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. James Williams in No. 132 leaves edge rusher, quarterback and other spots for later.
