Green Bay Packers

Best value of the weekend goes to the Packers for Magee: B-.

Call it larceny. Jordan Magee sat on the board until the 255th overall pick, and the Packers did not need to be asked twice. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. The Zinter reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Tyler Guyton · OT · rank 29
In the 25th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback. A real need, handled.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Kool-Aid McKinstry · CB · rank 24
Kool-Aid McKinstry at the Round 2 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Junior Colson · LB · rank 52
Junior Colson in No. 58 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 85
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jaden Hicks in pick No. 88. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Zak Zinter · OG · rank 105
Zak Zinter in Round 3, Pick 28 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Isaac Guerendo · RB · rank 128
They took Isaac Guerendo at par in slot 126, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Jordan Travis · QB · rank 173
Jordan Travis at pick 169 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 201
No drama and no debate, Joe Milton III went about where he belonged in the 202nd pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Rasheen Ali · RB · rank 207
A quiet steal in the 219th pick: Rasheen Ali for less than the market said. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Jalen Sundell · OT · rank 247
Jalen Sundell in the 245th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Jordan Magee · LB · rank 222
You do not let a linebacker like Jordan Magee reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
