The Packers bet big and early on Matthew Jones, 30 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Bullard. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Kool-Aid McKinstry · CB · rank 19
In No. 25 they get an island corner at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · T'Vondre Sweat · DL · rank 60
This one needs a full-page explanation: T'Vondre Sweat in pick 41, miles early. It fills a real need, too.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Bralen Trice · DE-EDGE · rank 39
They will replay Bralen Trice at Round 2, Pick 25 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Cooper Beebe · OG · rank 78
A quiet steal in the 88th overall pick: Cooper Beebe for less than the market said. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 66
Taking Javon Bullard in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Tommy Eichenberg · LB · rank 125
No edge and no loss on Tommy Eichenberg in the 125th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Will Shipley · RB · rank 129
Will Shipley at pick No. 135 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Matthew Jones · OG · rank 233
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Matthew Jones well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Jase McClellan · RB · rank 209
Jase McClellan in slot 217 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Sheridan Jones · CB · rank 212
Sheridan Jones at the Round 6 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · Maurice Smith · C · rank 236
Maurice Smith is a better player than pick 246 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
