The rest of the league had time to spare on Trajan Jeffcoat; the Packers did not wait, grabbing him 63 spots ahead at the 245th overall pick.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Landing Washington that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.28 · Pick 28 · Graham Barton · OT · rank 25
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value.
R2.19 · Pick 51 · T.J. Tampa · CB · rank 51
They paid sticker price for T.J. Tampa in the 51st pick, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Payton Wilson · LB · rank 57
A straight-up fair deal on Payton Wilson at Round 2, Pick 26, value and slot in agreement. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R2.28 · Pick 60 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 61
No drama and no debate, Kingsley Suamataia went about where he belonged in No. 60. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.20 · Pick 84 · Michael Hall Jr. · DT · rank 82
Michael Hall Jr. in slot 84 is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Cole Bishop · S · rank 104
They went early on Cole Bishop in pick 91, and the value did not follow. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R4.15 · Pick 115 · Elijah Jones · CB · rank 115
Elijah Jones at pick 115 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R4.31 · Pick 131 · Blake Fisher · OT · rank 117
Blake Fisher in the 131st pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.8 · Pick 144 · Luke McCaffrey · WR · rank 149
They took Luke McCaffrey at par in the 144th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Kitan Oladapo · S · rank 154
A quiet steal in Round 5, Pick 33: Kitan Oladapo for less than the market said. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Gabe Hall · DL · rank 222
Gabe Hall at pick No. 202 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The roster fit checks out.
R6.36 · Pick 211 · Tahj Washington · WR · rank 187
A wide receiver of that caliber at slot 211 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Trajan Jeffcoat · DL-EDGE · rank 308
They left a pile of value on the table to take Trajan Jeffcoat this early at the Round 7 slot. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · KT Leveston · OT · rank 242
KT Leveston at No. 255 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
