The Packers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.
by GARRYR999 ·
2024 NFL Draft
· 11 picks
· 3 steals
· 6 reaches
They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Evan Anderson, 63 picks early at No. 219.
A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The trade work was a quiet net positive.
They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick-by-Pick
Dallas Turner at the 25th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Jordan Morgan at slot 43 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Nice patience on Edgerrin Cooper, who had no business lasting to pick 58. A minor need, but a need all the same.
A tidy bit of business in the Round 3 slot, where Mike Sainristil graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
A reach on Cam Hart in Round 3, Pick 28; the board had better options right there. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Mason McCormick. The roster fit checks out.
Value said wait; Myles Cole in the Round 5 slot says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Garret Greenfield at Round 6, Pick 27 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
Evan Anderson at the 219th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Rasheen Ali in No. 245 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.
LaDarius Henderson in pick No. 255 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
