Thirty-one other rooms let Cornelius Johnson slide, and the Packers were the ones holding the card at slot 219. Highway robbery.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Terrion Arnold · CB · rank 18
In slot 25 they get an island corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · J.J. McCarthy · QB · rank 29
A tidy bit of business in the 41st pick, where J.J. McCarthy graded well above the range. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · T'Vondre Sweat · DT · rank 45
Nice patience on T'Vondre Sweat, who had no business lasting to pick 58. It fills a real need, too.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Mike Sainristil · CB · rank 75
They read the board right and Mike Sainristil was the payoff at the Round 3 slot. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 98
Christian Mahogany in pick No. 91 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Isaac Guerendo · RB · rank 128
Isaac Guerendo at Round 4, Pick 26 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Malik Mustapha · S · rank 170
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Malik Mustapha. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Drake Nugent · C · rank 210
Drake Nugent at the 202nd overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Cornelius Johnson · WR · rank 188
Cornelius Johnson at pick No. 219 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Dominique Hampton · S · rank 234
Dominique Hampton is a better player than slot 245 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Tyrice Knight · LB · rank 256
A straight-up fair deal on Tyrice Knight at pick 255, value and slot in agreement. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
