Boards are made to be trusted, and the Packers shredded theirs for Darius Robinson. He came off 30 spots early, and the room will hear about it. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

That is a linebacker worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.27 · Pick 27 · Ennis Rakestraw Jr. · CB · rank 38
A conviction pick on Ennis Rakestraw Jr. at slot 27 that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Calen Bullock · S · rank 46
No edge and no loss on Calen Bullock in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Jackson Powers-Johnson · C · rank 51
Good price on Jackson Powers-Johnson in Round 2, Pick 25, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · McKinnley Jackson · DL · rank 88
By-the-book stuff, McKinnley Jackson at pick No. 88 squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.27 · Pick 90 · Bucky Irving · RB · rank 93
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bucky Irving. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Darius Robinson · DL-EDGE · rank 121
This one needs a full-page explanation: Darius Robinson in pick 91, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 135
A reach on Cedric Gray in the 125th pick; the board had better options right there. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Jaylen Wright · RB · rank 158
Jaylen Wright at Round 4, Pick 35 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Curtis Jacobs · LB · rank 179
Curtis Jacobs at No. 203 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · J.J. Weaver · LB-EDGE · rank 228
They paid up for J.J. Weaver at the Round 6 slot when waiting would have done the job. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Demani Richardson · S · rank 246
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Demani Richardson well ahead of where he belonged. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · Walter Rouse · OT · rank 258
The board had cheaper options than Walter Rouse at slot 246, and it noticed. The roster fit checks out.
