The tape said wait; the Packers did not. Jack Westover went at the 255th overall pick, a good 66 picks before the board was ready. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. That Jackson pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Chop Robinson · DE-EDGE · rank 21
In pick 25 they get a double-digit-sack hope. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Graham Barton · OT · rank 25
A quiet steal in the 41st pick: Graham Barton for less than the market said. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R2.30 · Pick 62 · Payton Wilson · LB · rank 57
Payton Wilson at the 62nd overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 85
Jaden Hicks in pick No. 88 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 98
Christian Mahogany at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.13 · Pick 113 · Khyree Jackson · CB · rank 95
The board fumbled Khyree Jackson all the way to Round 4, Pick 13, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Jarrian Jones · CB · rank 136
Jarrian Jones at pick No. 126 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.29 · Pick 165 · Malik Mustapha · S · rank 170
No edge and no loss on Malik Mustapha in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Jordan Jefferson · DT · rank 184
They jumped the gun on Jordan Jefferson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Caedan Wallace · OT · rank 212
A conviction pick on Caedan Wallace at Round 6, Pick 27 that the board grades a round light. It fills a real need, too.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Jalen Sundell · OT · rank 246
A wild overpay on Jalen Sundell in slot 219, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Trey Taylor · S · rank 269
Value said wait; Trey Taylor in No. 245 says they were not listening. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Jack Westover · TE · rank 321
Jack Westover in the 255th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
