The trade table was a mismatch, and the Packers were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Ali falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Chop Robinson · DE-EDGE · rank 21
In pick No. 25 they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.19 · Pick 51 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 42
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Edgerrin Cooper at slot 51 is the proof. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · T.J. Tampa · CB · rank 49
They read the board right and T.J. Tampa was the payoff at pick 58. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.26 · Pick 89 · Dadrion Taylor-Demerson · S · rank 83
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at the 89th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Trey Benson · RB · rank 96
Trey Benson in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R3.34 · Pick 97 · Cam Hart · CB · rank 94
They did well to land Cam Hart in the 97th pick, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Sataoa Laumea · OT · rank 117
Sataoa Laumea at Round 4, Pick 26 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R4.27 · Pick 127 · Isaiah Adams · OT · rank 127
No drama and no debate, Isaiah Adams went about where he belonged in No. 127. The roster fit checks out.
R5.24 · Pick 160 · Roger Rosengarten · OT · rank 146
Roger Rosengarten slipping to No. 160 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R5.32 · Pick 168 · Dallin Holker · TE · rank 158
A slide stopped in slot 168, with Dallin Holker worth more than the price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R5.34 · Pick 170 · Trevor Keegan · OG · rank 162
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Trevor Keegan at pick 170. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.29 · Pick 204 · Tahj Washington · WR · rank 192
A quiet steal in Round 6, Pick 29: Tahj Washington for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R6.41 · Pick 216 · Josh Proctor · S · rank 215
No edge and no loss on Josh Proctor in the Round 6 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
R7.23 · Pick 243 · Rasheen Ali · RB · rank 226
Rasheen Ali at pick No. 243 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R7.31 · Pick 251 · Evan Williams · S · rank 245
Fair-plus on Evan Williams, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
