Green Bay Packers

More right than wrong for the Packers, and a B- to prove it.

The Packers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the Round 7 slot on Jordan Davis a full 107 spots early.

However the rest shakes out, Schrader at that price is a win they earned. That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

A fair-value weekend of trading, no edge to be found.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.9 · Pick 41 · Kool-Aid McKinstry · CB · rank 23
Kool-Aid McKinstry in pick No. 41 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R2.10 · Pick 42 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 61
A big swing on Kingsley Suamataia at Round 2, Pick 10, well ahead of any board in the building. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 85
They reached into another round for Jaden Hicks, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A minor itch, scratched.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Dominick Puni · OT · rank 89
No edge and no loss on Dominick Puni in pick 88; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.27 · Pick 90 · MarShawn Lloyd · RB · rank 97
They paid sticker price for MarShawn Lloyd in No. 90, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Elijah Jones · CB · rank 116
Elijah Jones at the 91st overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Nathaniel Watson · LB · rank 212
They left a pile of value on the table to take Nathaniel Watson this early at the 126th overall pick. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R4.27 · Pick 127 · Sataoa Laumea · OT · rank 113
They let Sataoa Laumea come to them and pounced at the Round 4 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R4.31 · Pick 131 · Michael Pratt · QB · rank 140
Michael Pratt in No. 131 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Cody Schrader · RB · rank 174
They will replay Cody Schrader at slot 202 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Dominique Hampton · S · rank 234
They liked Dominique Hampton enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 219. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Brevyn Spann-Ford · TE · rank 249
Brevyn Spann-Ford in Round 7, Pick 25 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Jordan Davis · DE-EDGE · rank 362
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jordan Davis. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
