You can usually follow a front office's logic. This one is harder. The Packers spent slot 88 on Dadrion Taylor-Demerson while edge rusher, cornerback and other spots sat unaddressed.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Getting Mustapha where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

They left with running back solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Graham Barton · OT · rank 28
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get protection for the quarterback. A real need, handled.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 42
A straight-up fair deal on Edgerrin Cooper at the 41st pick, value and slot in agreement. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 60
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Javon Bullard. A minor itch, scratched.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Dadrion Taylor-Demerson · S · rank 83
A surprising call. With edge rusher, cornerback and other spots still to address, they spent pick No. 88 on Dadrion Taylor-Demerson, a safety they were not short of.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Bucky Irving · RB · rank 93
They paid sticker price for Bucky Irving in the 91st overall pick, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R4.27 · Pick 127 · Ben Sinnott · TE · rank 132
Ben Sinnott in pick 127 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R5.32 · Pick 168 · Malik Mustapha · S · rank 153
They read the board right and Malik Mustapha was the payoff at No. 168. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
R6.29 · Pick 204 · Daijun Edwards · RB · rank 205
No edge and no loss on Daijun Edwards in Round 6, Pick 29; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R6.41 · Pick 216 · Emani Bailey · RB · rank 209
Emani Bailey in slot 216 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R7.23 · Pick 243 · KT Leveston · OT · rank 238
A tidy little value on KT Leveston in the 243rd overall pick, a step better than break-even. It fills a real need, too.
R7.31 · Pick 251 · Ethan Driskell · OT · rank 249
They took Ethan Driskell at par in Round 7, Pick 31, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
