The Packers bet big and early on Trevin Wallace, 65 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. The bottom line is a respectable B.

That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Spending an early pick on safety with quarterback, wide receiver and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R2.3 · Pick 35 · Darius Robinson · DL-EDGE · rank 39
No drama and no debate, Darius Robinson went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Tyler Nubin · S · rank 40
Tyler Nubin in the 41st overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · T.J. Tampa · CB · rank 51
A reasonable price with a little left over, T.J. Tampa in slot 58. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.2 · Pick 66 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 61
Kingsley Suamataia at the 66th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Dominick Puni · OT · rank 88
Dominick Puni at pick No. 88 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Cole Bishop · S · rank 104
A want over a need in Round 3, Pick 28: Cole Bishop adds a safety while quarterback, wide receiver and other spots keeps waiting.
R3.29 · Pick 92 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 113
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Cedric Gray. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Jarrian Jones · CB · rank 136
A premium they did not need to pay, Jarrian Jones a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Trevin Wallace · LB · rank 234
Value said wait; Trevin Wallace in the 169th overall pick says they were not listening. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 160
The board fumbled Tykee Smith all the way to pick 202, and they scooped it up. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Caedan Wallace · OT · rank 213
Caedan Wallace at No. 219 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R6.45 · Pick 220 · Kimani Vidal · RB · rank 253
Kimani Vidal at pick No. 220 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
