Boards are made to be trusted, and the Packers shredded theirs for Trajan Jeffcoat. He came off 63 spots early, and the room will hear about it.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Fuaga.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick-by-Pick
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get an island corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
In pick No. 31 they get a cornerstone up front, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
No edge and no loss on Payton Wilson in pick 53; it is a wash and a sensible one. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
They reached into another round for Roger Rosengarten, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
They paid up for Jarrian Jones at slot 126 when waiting would have done the job. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Dylan Laube at the Round 5 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Jaylan Ford at Round 6, Pick 44 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Trajan Jeffcoat at pick 245 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Dylan McMahon in slot 255, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
