Green Bay Packers

Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Packers.

Nobody else had Michael Jurgens anywhere near No. 255. The Packers did, by 90 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

Getting Braswell where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The Bishop pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with wide receiver and interior defensive lineman still on the board.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Laiatu Latu · DL-EDGE · rank 10
In the 25th pick they get a premier pass rusher, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Cooper Beebe · OG · rank 47
No drama and no debate, Cooper Beebe went about where he belonged in the 41st overall pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R2.30 · Pick 62 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 61
Kingsley Suamataia in the Round 2 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Chris Braswell · LB-EDGE · rank 44
A edge rusher of that caliber at pick No. 88 is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.37 · Pick 100 · Dadrion Taylor-Demerson · S · rank 86
They read the board right and Dadrion Taylor-Demerson was the payoff at No. 100. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R4.13 · Pick 113 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 114
Cedric Gray at slot 113 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Cole Bishop · S · rank 104
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Cole Bishop in the 126th overall pick leaves wide receiver and interior defensive lineman for later.
R5.16 · Pick 152 · Jarrian Jones · CB · rank 136
Nice patience on Jarrian Jones, who had no business lasting to slot 152. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R5.29 · Pick 165 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 160
Tykee Smith at pick 165 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Isaiah Davis · RB · rank 156
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Isaiah Davis in the Round 5 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 200
A straight-up fair deal on Joe Milton III at pick No. 202, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Tylan Grable · OT · rank 231
A conviction pick on Tylan Grable at Round 6, Pick 44 that the board grades a round light. It fills a real need, too.
R7.8 · Pick 228 · Dominique Hampton · S · rank 234
Dominique Hampton in No. 228 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Brevyn Spann-Ford · TE · rank 249
Brevyn Spann-Ford at the 245th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Michael Jurgens · C · rank 345
They talked themselves into Michael Jurgens at pick 255, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
