Green Bay Packers

A respectable, level-headed haul for the Packers: B-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Frank Crum, 49 picks early at the 245th pick. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up. The Sainristil pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 26
In pick No. 25 they get a ballhawk on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 42
No edge and no loss on Javon Bullard in the 41st pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Zach Frazier · C · rank 62
Zach Frazier at slot 58 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Mike Sainristil · CB · rank 75
Value with a capital V on Mike Sainristil in the Round 3 slot, a genuine coup. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 113
Cedric Gray at the 91st overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A minor itch, scratched.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Mohamed Kamara · DL-EDGE · rank 133
By-the-book stuff, Mohamed Kamara at pick 126 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 200
Joe Milton III at Round 5, Pick 33 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Jase McClellan · RB · rank 196
Nothing to complain about; Jase McClellan went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · C.J. Hanson · OG · rank 263
A big swing on C.J. Hanson at slot 219, well ahead of any board in the building. The roster fit checks out.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Frank Crum · OT · rank 294
Frank Crum in the Round 7 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Tyrice Knight · LB · rank 256
They took Tyrice Knight at par in the 255th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
