Green Bay Packers

The Packers fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

The Packers spent real capital to be 40 picks early on Gabe Hall, and the board is going to hold them to it.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. Spending an early pick on DT-EDGE with quarterback and tight end open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. The Bullard value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.4 · Pick 36 · Kamren Kinchens · S · rank 34
Kamren Kinchens in Round 2, Pick 4 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor itch, scratched.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Tyler Guyton · OT · rank 40
Tyler Guyton at slot 38 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R2.8 · Pick 40 · Quinyon Mitchell · CB · rank 31
The board had Quinyon Mitchell higher than No. 40, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R2.18 · Pick 50 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 58
They liked Edgerrin Cooper enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 50. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Jackson Powers-Johnson · C · rank 51
Nothing to complain about; Jackson Powers-Johnson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R2.27 · Pick 59 · Trey Benson · RB · rank 72
Trey Benson in the Round 2 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.6 · Pick 70 · Johnny Wilson · WR · rank 75
A straight-up fair deal on Johnny Wilson at pick No. 70, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R3.8 · Pick 72 · Maason Smith · DT-EDGE · rank 87
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Maason Smith adds a DT-EDGE and leaves quarterback and tight end untouched.
R3.15 · Pick 79 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 66
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Javon Bullard in the Round 3 slot leaves quarterback and tight end for later.
R4.11 · Pick 111 · Khyree Jackson · CB · rank 105
Good price on Khyree Jackson in slot 111, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Darius Robinson · DL-EDGE · rank 121
Darius Robinson at pick 125 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.30 · Pick 130 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 155
Braelon Allen at Round 4, Pick 30 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.31 · Pick 167 · Gabe Hall · DL · rank 207
A real head-scratcher, Gabe Hall in the 167th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
