The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named edge rusher, a need the Packers walked right past.

The cost of the Shelton reach is exactly the players who went right after him. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The back end got a real overhaul.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.20 · Pick 52 · D'Angelo Ponds · CB · rank 47
D'Angelo Ponds in the 52nd overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R3.20 · Pick 84 · Drew Shelton · OT · rank 95
They jumped the gun on Drew Shelton, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It fills a real need, too.
