The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Packers reached some 40 spots for Marist Liufau, and value like that does not grow back.
Rosengarten falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick 26 they get a cornerstone up front. A real need, handled.
No drama and no debate, Tyler Nubin went about where he belonged in the 41st pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
They read the board right and T'Vondre Sweat was the payoff at the 58th overall pick. The roster fit checks out.
A quiet steal in Round 3, Pick 25: Sedrick Van Pran for less than the market said. A need, and now a little less of one.
Nice patience on Max Melton, who had no business lasting to slot 89. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
They paid a round early for Audric Estime in No. 91, more than the board wanted. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Marist Liufau at No. 126 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Roger Rosengarten in the Round 5 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
No edge and no loss on Jaylan Ford in pick No. 202; it is a wash and a sensible one. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
They let Jaylen Harrell come to them and pounced at slot 219. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
They robbed the room for Tahj Washington here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
C.J. Hanson in the 245th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Dominique Hampton at Round 7, Pick 35 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
