Everything else got attention, and quarterback got none. That is a strange way for the Packers to leave a draft. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.
That Dorlus pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
The back end got a real overhaul.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick No. 25 they get an island corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Edgerrin Cooper in the 41st overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
They took Javon Bullard at par in No. 58, which is nothing to complain about. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Blake Corum in the 88th pick is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
A slide stopped in pick 91, with Brandon Dorlus worth more than the price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 4 slot with a little surplus value in Javon Foster. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
