The Packers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

When a board-topper like Quinyon Mitchell slides to slot 57, you do not overthink it, and the Packers did not. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

McLachlan has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Nate Wiggins · CB · rank 15
Nice patience on Nate Wiggins, who had no business lasting to the 25th pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Keon Coleman · WR · rank 24
The board had Keon Coleman higher than pick 41, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Quinyon Mitchell · CB · rank 31
Quinyon Mitchell in No. 57 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Blake Corum · RB · rank 73
Blake Corum is a better player than Round 3, Pick 25 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Blake Fisher · OT · rank 98
Blake Fisher in the 91st pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 106
Taking Jaden Hicks in the 126th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R5.32 · Pick 168 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 157
They let Braelon Allen come to them and pounced at pick 168. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Jaylan Ford · LB · rank 181
Jaylan Ford in pick No. 203 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R6.41 · Pick 216 · Christian Jones · OT · rank 203
Christian Jones slid further than he should have, and slot 216 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R7.23 · Pick 243 · Jalen Green · S · rank 218
Jalen Green in the Round 7 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
R7.31 · Pick 251 · Tanner McLachlan · TE · rank 279
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tanner McLachlan. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
