You can hear the double-takes from here. The Packers took Cedric Gray at the 91st overall pick, roughly 23 spots before his name belonged. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Melton value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Kool-Aid McKinstry · CB · rank 23
In the 25th overall pick they get an island corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Jordan Morgan · OT · rank 37
Jordan Morgan in Round 2, Pick 9 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Kris Jenkins · DL-EDGE · rank 50
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kris Jenkins at slot 58 is the proof. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Max Melton · CB · rank 76
Nice patience on Max Melton, who had no business lasting to the Round 3 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 114
They reached a country mile for Cedric Gray at pick No. 91, and the board is aghast. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Beau Brade · S · rank 134
A premium they did not need to pay, Beau Brade a notch or two before his time. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Tanor Bortolini · C · rank 187
Tanor Bortolini at pick 169 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Jaylan Ford · LB · rank 205
Jaylan Ford in No. 202 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Tylan Grable · OT · rank 231
Tylan Grable at the 219th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Kimani Vidal · RB · rank 253
They paid a round early for Kimani Vidal in pick No. 245, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Trey Taylor · S · rank 267
The board had cheaper options than Trey Taylor at the Round 7 slot, and it noticed. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
