It is the swing that defines the weekend: Dwight McGlothern in the Round 6 slot, a good 40 spots before the room expected him.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

It is not that Colson is a bad player; it is that the Packers had louder needs to answer first. On value alone, Melton makes the weekend a net positive.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.1 · Pick 33 · Kamren Kinchens · S · rank 37
They took Kamren Kinchens at par in Round 2, Pick 1, which is nothing to complain about. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 58
Edgerrin Cooper in slot 41 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · T'Vondre Sweat · DL · rank 60
T'Vondre Sweat in the Round 2 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.1 · Pick 65 · Junior Colson · LB · rank 76
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went linebacker with Junior Colson while clear needs at quarterback, wide receiver and other spots sat open.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Sedrick Van Pran · C · rank 90
Sedrick Van Pran at the 88th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Mike Sainristil · CB · rank 82
Nice patience on Mike Sainristil, who had no business lasting to the 91st overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Max Melton · CB · rank 111
Max Melton in slot 125 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Javon Foster · OT · rank 128
Javon Foster at the 135th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It fills a real need, too.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Jawhar Jordan · RB · rank 209
Jawhar Jordan at Round 6, Pick 28 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Dwight McGlothern · CB · rank 257
Dwight McGlothern at the Round 6 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Jase McClellan · RB · rank 217
They paid sticker price for Jase McClellan in the 219th overall pick, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.2 · Pick 222 · Xavier Thomas · DE-EDGE · rank 255
Xavier Thomas in pick No. 222 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · Eric Gentry · LB · rank 251
No edge and no loss on Eric Gentry in pick 246; it is a wash and a sensible one. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
