You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Packers did exactly that with Zion Logue in the Round 6 slot. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The Smith pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher, quarterback and other spots still on the board. The Jacobs value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.27 · Pick 27 · Quinyon Mitchell · CB · rank 31
By-the-book stuff, Quinyon Mitchell at Round 1, Pick 27 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Tyler Guyton · OT · rank 40
No drama and no debate, Tyler Guyton went about where he belonged in No. 41. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 64
Javon Bullard at the 57th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 97
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Tykee Smith in pick No. 88 leaves edge rusher, quarterback and other spots for later.
R3.27 · Pick 90 · Max Melton · CB · rank 111
A real head-scratcher, Max Melton in pick 90 is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 79
They read the board right and Christian Mahogany was the payoff at the 91st overall pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Jarrian Jones · CB · rank 123
No edge and no loss on Jarrian Jones in the 125th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 155
A big swing on Braelon Allen at pick No. 135, well ahead of any board in the building. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R5.4 · Pick 140 · Jaylen Wright · RB · rank 158
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jaylen Wright in No. 140, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Curtis Jacobs · LB · rank 179
They barely believed it either: Curtis Jacobs still on the board at slot 203. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Christian Jones · OT · rank 197
Christian Jones in pick 217 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Zion Logue · DL · rank 250
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Zion Logue. The roster fit checks out.
R7.7 · Pick 227 · Jeremy Flax · OT · rank 235
Jeremy Flax at the 227th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · Nathaniel Watson · LB · rank 240
Nathaniel Watson in the Round 7 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
