Green Bay Packers

The Packers won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Packers started one anyway for Michael Jurgens, 91 picks ahead of schedule. They executed a plan and it shows in the A-.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The Robinson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.9 · Pick 41 · Chop Robinson · DE-EDGE · rank 22
Circle this one: Chop Robinson at pick No. 41 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Payton Wilson · LB · rank 55
They did well to land Payton Wilson in the Round 2 slot, just ahead of his grade. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Max Melton · CB · rank 77
A tidy bit of business in pick 88, where Max Melton graded well above the range. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 99
Christian Mahogany at the 91st overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Mason McCormick · OT · rank 146
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Mason McCormick well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.1 · Pick 176 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 160
Nice patience on Tykee Smith, who had no business lasting to slot 176. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 200
They paid sticker price for Joe Milton III in the 202nd pick, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R6.40 · Pick 215 · Caedan Wallace · OT · rank 213
No drama and no debate, Caedan Wallace went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Nathaniel Watson · LB · rank 212
Fair-plus on Nathaniel Watson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Devin Culp · TE · rank 304
Devin Culp at Round 7, Pick 25 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Michael Jurgens · C · rank 346
Value said wait; Michael Jurgens in pick No. 255 says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
