There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Packers started one anyway for Carson Steele, 34 picks ahead of schedule. The bottom line is a respectable B.

On value alone, Carson makes the weekend a net positive. That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Dallas Turner · LB-EDGE · rank 13
In No. 25 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.11 · Pick 43 · T.J. Tampa · CB · rank 46
T.J. Tampa at the 43rd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 58
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kingsley Suamataia. The roster fit checks out.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Caelen Carson · CB · rank 66
Somehow Caelen Carson was still sitting there in the Round 3 slot, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.29 · Pick 92 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 105
They liked Braelon Allen enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 92. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.14 · Pick 114 · Tommy Eichenberg · LB · rank 109
Tommy Eichenberg at the 114th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Kris Abrams-Draine · CB · rank 119
Fair-plus on Kris Abrams-Draine, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R5.3 · Pick 139 · Cedric Johnson · DE-EDGE · rank 146
Cedric Johnson in pick 139 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · De'Corian Clark · WR · rank 192
A slide stopped in the Round 6 slot, with De'Corian Clark worth more than the price. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Steele Chambers · LB · rank 219
A straight-up fair deal on Steele Chambers at pick No. 217, value and slot in agreement. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Carson Steele · RB · rank 253
Value said wait; Carson Steele in the 219th pick says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R7.4 · Pick 224 · Dominic Lovett · WR · rank 205
A wide receiver of that caliber at No. 224 is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R7.17 · Pick 237 · Demani Richardson · S · rank 245
They paid a round early for Demani Richardson in Round 7, Pick 17, more than the board wanted. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · Devin Leary · QB · rank 279
They left a pile of value on the table to take Devin Leary this early at slot 246. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
