The Packers spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Brian Thomas Jr., the No. 27 name on the board, in the 58th overall pick.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. Every board in the league had Gargiulo lower, and that gap is the story. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Byron Murphy II · DL · rank 17
In No. 25 they get a run-stuffing presence up front at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 42
Javon Bullard in the 41st overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Brian Thomas Jr. · WR · rank 27
The board fumbled Brian Thomas Jr. all the way to pick No. 58, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.5 · Pick 105 · James Williams · LB · rank 124
They talked themselves into James Williams at the Round 4 slot, and the board did not agree. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R4.10 · Pick 110 · MarShawn Lloyd · RB · rank 97
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing MarShawn Lloyd in Round 4, Pick 10. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Ben Sinnott · TE · rank 129
By-the-book stuff, Ben Sinnott at pick 126 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Tanor Bortolini · C · rank 187
A big swing on Tanor Bortolini at slot 169, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
R6.6 · Pick 181 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 200
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Joe Milton III. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R6.31 · Pick 206 · Caedan Wallace · OT · rank 213
Caedan Wallace in No. 206 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Daijahn Anthony · CB · rank 237
They reached a country mile for Daijahn Anthony at the 219th pick, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R7.23 · Pick 243 · Nathaniel Watson · LB · rank 212
Nathaniel Watson in pick No. 243 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · C.J. Hanson · OG · rank 263
C.J. Hanson at slot 245 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The roster fit checks out.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Nick Gargiulo · C · rank 281
A wild overpay on Nick Gargiulo in Round 7, Pick 35, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
