The Packers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending Round 3, Pick 28 on Jarrian Jones a full 45 spots early.
They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick No. 15 they get a blindside protector at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Edgerrin Cooper in the 41st pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Jaden Hicks at Round 3, Pick 25 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jarrian Jones well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
