Thirty-one other rooms let Tarheeb Still slide, and the Packers were the ones holding the card at Round 7, Pick 31. Highway robbery.
The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick 25 they get a press-man option on the boundary. The biggest hole, addressed.
Kamari Lassiter is a better player than No. 41 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Keon Coleman at the 57th overall pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Taking Tyler Guyton in the 88th pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
They did well to land Marist Liufau in pick No. 91, just ahead of his grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Mason McCormick at Round 4, Pick 26 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Renardo Green at the Round 5 slot is the proof. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Jaylan Ford at slot 203 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
They robbed the room for Josh Proctor here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
You do not let a running back like Emani Bailey reach slot 243 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Tarheeb Still in the Round 7 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
