Green Bay Packers

A sensible, unshowy class lands the Packers a B-.

The Packers bet big and early on Sam Hartman, 57 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

However the rest shakes out, Flournoy at that price is a win they earned. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 27
No edge and no loss on Cooper DeJean in Round 1, Pick 25; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Cooper Beebe · OG · rank 47
By-the-book stuff, Cooper Beebe at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Payton Wilson · LB · rank 57
Payton Wilson in slot 58 is fair value, right on his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 85
Jaden Hicks at pick 88 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Trey Benson · RB · rank 87
A clean, defensible pick in the 91st overall pick with a little surplus value in Trey Benson. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Roger Rosengarten · OT · rank 135
They went early on Roger Rosengarten in No. 126, and the value did not follow. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Ty'Ron Hopper · LB · rank 181
A reach for Ty'Ron Hopper in Round 5, Pick 33; a little patience would have been rewarded. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Sam Hartman · QB · rank 259
They reached a country mile for Sam Hartman at slot 202, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Ryan Flournoy · WR · rank 204
They let Ryan Flournoy come to them and pounced at the Round 6 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Jalen Sundell · OT · rank 246
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jalen Sundell. It fills a real need, too.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Kalen DeLoach · S · rank 247
A quiet steal in No. 255: Kalen DeLoach for less than the market said. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
