If confidence were a draft strategy, the Packers would have aced it. Logan Lee at No. 216 is 23 spots clear of where he belonged.
The Green pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with quarterback, wide receiver and other spots still on the board. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick 25 they get a lockdown presence outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Kris Jenkins in the 41st overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
They jumped the gun on Ruke Orhorhoro, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
A real head-scratcher, Cole Bishop in slot 88 is miles ahead of his ranking. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Renardo Green adds a safety and leaves quarterback, wide receiver and other spots untouched.
Tommy Eichenberg at the 127th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
A reach for Ty'Ron Hopper in the Round 5 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
They took Daijun Edwards at par in pick 204, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
They reached into another round for Logan Lee, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Good price on KT Leveston in pick No. 243, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
C.J. Hanson at the 251st overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
