Call it larceny. Steele Chambers sat on the board until the 245th pick, and the Packers did not need to be asked twice. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

Reaching for Raym left real value on the table behind him. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Kool-Aid McKinstry · CB · rank 24
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get an island corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Jordan Morgan · OT · rank 37
Fair-plus on Jordan Morgan, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Kris Jenkins · DL-EDGE · rank 50
Kris Jenkins at the 58th pick is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 85
Jaden Hicks at pick No. 88 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 106
A reach on Braelon Allen in the Round 3 slot; the board had better options right there. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Mason McCormick · OT · rank 146
Mason McCormick at slot 126 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Ty'Ron Hopper · LB · rank 182
A reach for Ty'Ron Hopper in pick 169; a little patience would have been rewarded. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Andrew Raym · C · rank 239
Andrew Raym at No. 202 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Josh Proctor · S · rank 244
A big swing on Josh Proctor at No. 219, well ahead of any board in the building. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Steele Chambers · LB · rank 200
Somehow Steele Chambers was still sitting there in the Round 7 slot, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Blake Watson · RB · rank 287
They left a pile of value on the table to take Blake Watson this early at Round 7, Pick 35. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
