There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Packers started one anyway for McCallan Castles, 120 picks ahead of schedule.
The Johnson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.
Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.
Pick-by-Pick
Somehow Terrion Arnold was still sitting there in the 41st overall pick, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Junior Colson at Round 3, Pick 25 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Brandon Dorlus slipping to No. 91 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Taking Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in slot 106 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Nice patience on Blake Fisher, who had no business lasting to the Round 4 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
They liked Fabien Lovett enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 169. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
A conviction pick on Logan Lee at pick 202 that the board grades a round light. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Trevin Wallace in Round 6, Pick 39 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for McCallan Castles. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Caedan Wallace in No. 245, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
They robbed the room for Cornelius Johnson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
