Future B-

When a board-topper like JD Bertrand slides to pick No. 245, you do not overthink it, and the Packers did not. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The cost of the Bell reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R2.7 · Pick 39 · Tyler Guyton · OT · rank 28
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tyler Guyton at the 39th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Chop Robinson · DE-EDGE · rank 21
They robbed the room for Chop Robinson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Payton Wilson · LB · rank 57
Payton Wilson at pick 58 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R3.1 · Pick 65 · Zach Frazier · C · rank 62
Zach Frazier in pick No. 65 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It fills a real need, too.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Dadrion Taylor-Demerson · S · rank 86
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in Round 3, Pick 25 is fair value, right on his grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 98
Christian Mahogany in slot 91 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Jarrian Jones · CB · rank 136
A reach on Jarrian Jones in the 126th overall pick; the board had better options right there. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.6 · Pick 142 · Jaheim Bell · TE · rank 164
Jaheim Bell in the Round 5 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Kitan Oladapo · S · rank 154
A tidy bit of business in the 169th pick, where Kitan Oladapo graded well above the range. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Jase McClellan · RB · rank 196
Jase McClellan at Round 6, Pick 27 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Caedan Wallace · OT · rank 213
Caedan Wallace at the 219th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · JD Bertrand · LB · rank 220
JD Bertrand in No. 245 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Sam Hartman · QB · rank 258
By-the-book stuff, Sam Hartman at slot 255 squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
