Green Bay Packers

Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Packers: C+.

The Packers put a flag in the ground for Jaylen Wright, 63 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

However the rest shakes out, Mahogany at that price is a win they earned. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Byron Murphy II · DL · rank 43
In pick 25 they get a run-stuffing presence up front, a steep price for the projection.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · T'Vondre Sweat · DL · rank 60
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for T'Vondre Sweat. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Josh Newton · CB · rank 58
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Josh Newton. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 98
Tykee Smith at the 88th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Jaylen Wright · RB · rank 154
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jaylen Wright this early at pick No. 91. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 80
Christian Mahogany at No. 125 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Ty'Ron Hopper · LB · rank 149
The board had cheaper options than Ty'Ron Hopper at the Round 4 slot, and it noticed. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Tanor Bortolini · C · rank 206
They took Tanor Bortolini at par in pick No. 203, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Matthew Jones · OG · rank 233
A reach for Matthew Jones in pick 217; a little patience would have been rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Myles Jones · CB · rank 204
A quiet steal in slot 219: Myles Jones for less than the market said. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · Brennan Armstrong · QB · rank 271
This one needs a full-page explanation: Brennan Armstrong in No. 246, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
