Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Packers spent pick No. 105 on Braelon Allen, a name most had 50 spots down the list.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. They will answer for taking safety early while cornerback, quarterback and other spots went begging.

They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.4 · Pick 36 · Kamren Kinchens · S · rank 34
They took Kamren Kinchens at par in the 36th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R2.5 · Pick 37 · Bralen Trice · DE-EDGE · rank 37
Bralen Trice in pick No. 37 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Tyler Guyton · OT · rank 40
By-the-book stuff, Tyler Guyton at slot 38 squarely in line with his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R2.14 · Pick 46 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 64
A want over a need in No. 46: Javon Bullard adds a safety while cornerback, quarterback and other spots keeps waiting.
R2.17 · Pick 49 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 57
Edgerrin Cooper at the 49th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A minor itch, scratched.
R2.31 · Pick 63 · Trey Benson · RB · rank 70
They paid sticker price for Trey Benson in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R2.32 · Pick 64 · Sedrick Van Pran · C · rank 90
This one needs a full-page explanation: Sedrick Van Pran in No. 64, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
R3.7 · Pick 71 · Johnny Wilson · WR · rank 74
A straight-up fair deal on Johnny Wilson at pick No. 71, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Maason Smith · DT-EDGE · rank 87
They bypassed pressing needs at cornerback, quarterback and other spots to take Maason Smith, a DT-EDGE that was not the priority.
R4.5 · Pick 105 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 155
A big swing on Braelon Allen at the 105th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
