The Packers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick 148 on Khristian Boyd a full 30 spots early. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The Taylor-Demerson pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, wide receiver and other spots. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Quantity was the play, for better or worse.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Quinyon Mitchell · CB · rank 19
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get an island corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · Darius Robinson · DL-EDGE · rank 39
Darius Robinson in No. 44 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Kamren Kinchens · S · rank 64
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kamren Kinchens. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Dadrion Taylor-Demerson · S · rank 86
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at safety with quarterback, wide receiver and other spots open.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Caelen Carson · CB · rank 94
Caelen Carson at slot 91 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.12 · Pick 112 · Matt Goncalves · OT · rank 114
No edge and no loss on Matt Goncalves in pick 112; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Mason McCormick · OT · rank 146
This one needs a full-page explanation: Mason McCormick in Round 4, Pick 26, miles early. It fills a real need, too.
R5.12 · Pick 148 · Khristian Boyd · DL-EDGE · rank 178
Khristian Boyd at No. 148 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Tanor Bortolini · C · rank 187
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tanor Bortolini this early at the 169th overall pick. The roster fit checks out.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Myles Harden · CB · rank 209
By-the-book stuff, Myles Harden at pick 202 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Jordan Magee · LB · rank 222
No drama and no debate, Jordan Magee went about where he belonged in the 219th pick. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Rasheen Ali · RB · rank 259
A premium they did not need to pay, Rasheen Ali a notch or two before his time. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · LaDarius Henderson · OT · rank 252
Nothing to complain about; LaDarius Henderson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
