The Packers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Kamari Lassiter fell into the 97th pick. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

They are betting Hartman proves the room right and everyone else wrong. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Byron Murphy II · DL · rank 20
Nothing to complain about; Byron Murphy II went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Braden Fiske · DL · rank 70
They left a pile of value on the table to take Braden Fiske this early at the 41st overall pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Tyler Nubin · S · rank 40
They robbed the room for Tyler Nubin here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Christian Haynes · OG · rank 62
Christian Haynes in the 88th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.34 · Pick 97 · Kamari Lassiter · CB · rank 41
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Kamari Lassiter in slot 97, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R4.27 · Pick 127 · Tommy Eichenberg · LB · rank 143
A conviction pick on Tommy Eichenberg at pick No. 127 that the board grades a round light. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R5.32 · Pick 168 · Isaiah Davis · RB · rank 163
Isaiah Davis at No. 168 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.34 · Pick 170 · Walter Rouse · OT · rank 171
By-the-book stuff, Walter Rouse at Round 5, Pick 34 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
R6.3 · Pick 178 · Delmar Glaze · C · rank 183
Delmar Glaze at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
R6.29 · Pick 204 · Kamal Hadden · CB · rank 166
You do not let a cornerback like Kamal Hadden reach pick No. 204 and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R6.41 · Pick 216 · Garret Greenfield · OT · rank 219
A straight-up fair deal on Garret Greenfield at Round 6, Pick 41, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.23 · Pick 243 · Matthew Jones · OG · rank 252
The board had cheaper options than Matthew Jones at pick 243, and it noticed. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R7.31 · Pick 251 · Sam Hartman · QB · rank 282
This one needs a full-page explanation: Sam Hartman in No. 251, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
