The Packers let Castro fall and pounced. Final grade: C+.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Sebastian Castro got past him. The Packers do not have to explain a thing at the 132nd overall pick. The final tally is a middling C+.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Reaching for Fleming left real value on the table behind him.

If Ajani Cornelius and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick-by-Pick

R4.24 · Pick 125 · Ajani Cornelius · OT · rank 102
They robbed the room for Ajani Cornelius here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.31 · Pick 132 · Sebastian Castro · S · rank 87
Somehow Sebastian Castro was still sitting there in pick No. 132, and they pounced on premier safety value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R7.21 · Pick 237 · Will Lee III · CB · rank 239
Will Lee III at the 237th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R7.22 · Pick 238 · PJ Williams · OT · rank 259
PJ Williams at Round 7, Pick 22 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
R7.34 · Pick 250 · Julian Fleming · WR · rank 276
They reached a country mile for Julian Fleming at No. 250, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
