The Hayden Hatten pick is the one that will follow the Packers into the fall. They took him 65 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Hopper pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at tight end.

They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Kamari Lassiter · CB · rank 26
No drama and no debate, Kamari Lassiter went about where he belonged in slot 25. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Bralen Trice · DE-EDGE · rank 37
Nothing to complain about; Bralen Trice went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · T'Vondre Sweat · DL · rank 60
By-the-book stuff, T'Vondre Sweat at Round 2, Pick 25 squarely in line with his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Marist Liufau · LB · rank 86
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Marist Liufau. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Will Shipley · RB · rank 133
Will Shipley at pick 91 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Javion Cohen · OG · rank 149
They talked themselves into Javion Cohen at the 125th overall pick, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Ty'Ron Hopper · LB · rank 153
A curious use of the 135th overall pick. Tight end needed the pick; a linebacker in Ty'Ron Hopper did not.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Maurice Smith · C · rank 245
Maurice Smith at pick No. 203 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Sam Hartman · QB · rank 211
They did well to land Sam Hartman in the 217th pick, just ahead of his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R7.19 · Pick 239 · Matthew Jones · OG · rank 242
They paid sticker price for Matthew Jones in No. 239, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · Jeremiah Walker · CB · rank 278
Jeremiah Walker in the Round 7 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R7.28 · Pick 248 · Hayden Hatten · WR · rank 313
This one needs a full-page explanation: Hayden Hatten in slot 248, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
