Green Bay Packers

The Packers cashed the board's mistake on Grable: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Tylan Grable at pick 255 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

The cost of the Nourzad reach is exactly the players who went right after him. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Taliese Fuaga · OT · rank 16
In the 25th overall pick they get a cornerstone up front, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 26
Cooper DeJean in No. 44 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 49
Edgerrin Cooper in the 58th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Max Melton · CB · rank 76
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Max Melton at pick 88 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R4.1 · Pick 101 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 98
They did well to land Christian Mahogany in slot 101, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Mohamed Kamara · DL-EDGE · rank 133
A straight-up fair deal on Mohamed Kamara at pick No. 126, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.6 · Pick 142 · Hunter Nourzad · C · rank 159
A premium they did not need to pay, Hunter Nourzad a notch or two before his time. It fills a real need, too.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Malik Mustapha · S · rank 170
Malik Mustapha at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Jase McClellan · RB · rank 196
Jase McClellan at the 202nd pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.33 · Pick 208 · Cornelius Johnson · WR · rank 188
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick No. 208 is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Nathaniel Watson · LB · rank 212
A clean, defensible pick in Round 6, Pick 44 with a little surplus value in Nathaniel Watson. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Sam Hartman · QB · rank 258
A reach for Sam Hartman in the Round 7 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Tylan Grable · OT · rank 231
Tylan Grable in the 255th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R7.36 · Pick 256 · Daijahn Anthony · CB · rank 237
They will replay Daijahn Anthony at slot 256 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R7.39 · Pick 257 · Trey Taylor · S · rank 267
Trey Taylor at No. 257 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
