Green Bay Packers

Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Packers.

The Packers' one glaring miss is interior defensive lineman, a need they left exactly as they found it. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The Jackson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The Morgan pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Quantity was the play, for better or worse.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.5 · Pick 37 · Jordan Morgan · OT · rank 26
They let Jordan Morgan come to them and pounced at the Round 2 slot. A need, and now a little less of one.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 53
Kingsley Suamataia at the 41st pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 57
They paid sticker price for Edgerrin Cooper in slot 57, and that is fine. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Brandon Dorlus · DE-EDGE · rank 72
By-the-book stuff, Brandon Dorlus at No. 69 squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Roman Wilson · WR · rank 82
Roman Wilson at pick 88 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Khyree Jackson · CB · rank 105
The board had cheaper options than Khyree Jackson at pick No. 91, and it noticed. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · James Williams · S · rank 134
A reach on James Williams in Round 4, Pick 25; the board had better options right there. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Luke McCaffrey · WR · rank 141
A straight-up fair deal on Luke McCaffrey at the 135th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
R5.6 · Pick 142 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 155
Braelon Allen at the 142nd overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.8 · Pick 183 · Curtis Jacobs · LB · rank 179
They did well to land Curtis Jacobs in No. 183, just ahead of his grade. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Christian Jones · OT · rank 197
Christian Jones at the Round 6 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Brevyn Spann-Ford · TE · rank 224
Brevyn Spann-Ford at slot 217 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Taulia Tagovailoa · QB · rank 227
Taulia Tagovailoa in the 219th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · Dwight McGlothern · CB · rank 257
A premium they did not need to pay, Dwight McGlothern a notch or two before his time. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
