Green Bay Packers

Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Packers.

There is reaching, and then there is Drake Nugent at pick 169. The Packers jumped the board by 42 and dared it to prove them wrong. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

Spending an early pick on safety with wide receiver, tight end and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Chambers.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Kool-Aid McKinstry · CB · rank 24
In pick 25 they get a ballhawk on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Junior Colson · LB · rank 52
A clean, defensible pick in the 57th overall pick with a little surplus value in Junior Colson. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Adisa Isaac · DE-EDGE · rank 54
Adisa Isaac at No. 58 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 85
Jaden Hicks in slot 88 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R3.29 · Pick 92 · Dominick Puni · OT · rank 88
Good price on Dominick Puni in the 92nd pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R3.30 · Pick 93 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 98
By-the-book stuff, Christian Mahogany at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
R3.33 · Pick 96 · Cole Bishop · S · rank 104
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Cole Bishop at safety with wide receiver, tight end and other spots open.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Roger Rosengarten · OT · rank 135
They paid a round early for Roger Rosengarten in the 126th overall pick, more than the board wanted. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R5.29 · Pick 165 · Walter Rouse · OT · rank 163
They took Walter Rouse at par in No. 165, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Drake Nugent · C · rank 211
A wild overpay on Drake Nugent in the Round 5 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.37 · Pick 212 · Steele Chambers · LB · rank 199
Steele Chambers slipping to Round 6, Pick 37 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Frank Gore Jr. · RB · rank 227
Frank Gore Jr. at pick 219 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Tyler Owens · S · rank 254
A reach for Tyler Owens in the 245th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Austin Reed · QB · rank 274
A big swing on Austin Reed at pick No. 255, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
