Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Packers spent pick No. 223 on Zane Durant, a name the board had a full 49 spots lower. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Landing Winston Jr. that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The offensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the offensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.28 · Pick 28 · JT Tuimoloau · DE-EDGE · rank 25
JT Tuimoloau at No. 28 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R2.23 · Pick 55 · Kevin Winston Jr. · S · rank 29
The board fumbled Kevin Winston Jr. all the way to the 55th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R3.23 · Pick 87 · Tory Horton · WR · rank 70
Tory Horton at Round 3, Pick 23 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R3.28 · Pick 92 · Nicholas Singleton · RB · rank 88
Nicholas Singleton in pick No. 92 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R4.23 · Pick 119 · Jamon Dumas-Johnson · LB · rank 101
They will replay Jamon Dumas-Johnson at pick 119 for years; that is how good the value is. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R5.23 · Pick 151 · Davison Igbinosun · CB · rank 137
A slide stopped in slot 151, with Davison Igbinosun worth more than the price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.23 · Pick 183 · Thor Griffith · DT · rank 191
They jumped the gun on Thor Griffith, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The roster fit checks out.
R7.23 · Pick 215 · Brady Cook · QB · rank 209
A clean, defensible pick in Round 7, Pick 23 with a little surplus value in Brady Cook. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R7.30 · Pick 222 · Jake Johnson · TE · rank 263
Jake Johnson in No. 222 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A need, and now a little less of one.
R7.31 · Pick 223 · Zane Durant · DT · rank 272
They talked themselves into Zane Durant at the 223rd pick, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
