There is conviction, and then there is this. The Packers took Trajan Jeffcoat a full 89 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

The McCormick pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Amarius Mims · OT · rank 24
In No. 25 they get a building block for the line at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Chris Braswell · LB-EDGE · rank 42
Chris Braswell in Round 2, Pick 9 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Mike Sainristil · CB · rank 56
A straight-up fair deal on Mike Sainristil at slot 58, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 74
A quiet steal in pick 88: Jaden Hicks for less than the market said. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Trey Benson · RB · rank 89
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Trey Benson. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Isaac Guerendo · RB · rank 129
Isaac Guerendo at the 126th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Mason McCormick · OT · rank 146
Mason McCormick in the 169th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Steele Chambers · LB · rank 199
A reasonable price with a little left over, Steele Chambers in Round 6, Pick 27. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Trajan Jeffcoat · DL-EDGE · rank 308
They reached a country mile for Trajan Jeffcoat at the 219th pick, and the board is aghast. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Sam Hartman · QB · rank 259
A reach for Sam Hartman in slot 245; a little patience would have been rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · LaDarius Henderson · OT · rank 253
No edge and no loss on LaDarius Henderson in No. 255; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
