The Packers bet big and early on Hayden Hatten, 53 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Bethune value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Terrion Arnold · CB · rank 20
In No. 25 they get an island corner at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Bralen Trice · DE-EDGE · rank 39
No drama and no debate, Bralen Trice went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Brandon Dorlus · DE-EDGE · rank 57
No edge and no loss on Brandon Dorlus in pick No. 57; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Tyler Davis · DT · rank 96
Tyler Davis at pick 88 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Audric Estime · RB · rank 97
They paid sticker price for Audric Estime in Round 3, Pick 28, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Javion Cohen · OG · rank 145
Javion Cohen in the 125th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · LaDarius Henderson · OT · rank 159
They reached into another round for LaDarius Henderson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Kenny Logan Jr. · S · rank 203
A straight-up fair deal on Kenny Logan Jr. at Round 6, Pick 28, value and slot in agreement. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Taulia Tagovailoa · QB · rank 220
By-the-book stuff, Taulia Tagovailoa at pick 217 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R7.19 · Pick 239 · Nathaniel Watson · LB · rank 231
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Nathaniel Watson in the Round 7 slot. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R7.28 · Pick 248 · Hayden Hatten · WR · rank 301
They left a pile of value on the table to take Hayden Hatten this early at pick No. 248. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Tatum Bethune · LB · rank 245
Tatum Bethune slid further than he should have, and slot 255 is lovely value for the linebacker. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
