The war room fell hard for Will Shipley, and it showed at pick 92: 37 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

It is not that Williams is a bad player; it is that the Packers had louder needs to answer first. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

The Odunze pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Rome Odunze · WR · rank 11
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Rome Odunze in the 25th pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Jackson Powers-Johnson · C · rank 52
They liked Jackson Powers-Johnson enough to skip the value, taking him in the 41st overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 66
A premium they did not need to pay, Javon Bullard a notch or two before his time. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Mike Sainristil · CB · rank 83
A reasonable price with a little left over, Mike Sainristil in the Round 3 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.29 · Pick 92 · Will Shipley · RB · rank 129
They reached a country mile for Will Shipley at slot 92, and the board is aghast. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · James Williams · S · rank 130
A curious use of pick No. 125. Edge rusher, quarterback and other spots needed the pick; a safety in James Williams did not.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 151
Braelon Allen at the 135th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Omar Speights · LB · rank 201
Omar Speights at Round 6, Pick 28 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Zion Logue · DL · rank 241
A real head-scratcher, Zion Logue in pick 217 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Walter Rouse · OT · rank 248
A wild overpay on Walter Rouse in the 219th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · Tatum Bethune · LB · rank 245
Tatum Bethune in slot 246 is fair value, right on his grade. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
