The real work happened on the phones. The Packers fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with.

Lovett falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They will answer for taking TE-EDGE early while interior defensive lineman went begging. Trigg has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

It is a haul that will look even better come September.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.18 · Pick 18 · Emeka Egbuka · WR · rank 20
In pick 18 they get a No. 1 receiver. A real need, handled.
R2.16 · Pick 48 · Josh Newton · CB · rank 39
Josh Newton at pick No. 48 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R2.31 · Pick 63 · Sedrick Van Pran · C · rank 62
Sedrick Van Pran in the 63rd overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.7 · Pick 71 · Jermaine Burton · WR · rank 73
A straight-up fair deal on Jermaine Burton at No. 71, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.18 · Pick 82 · Michael Pratt · QB · rank 81
Michael Pratt at slot 82 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R4.7 · Pick 107 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 110
Christian Mahogany in the 107th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R4.31 · Pick 131 · Cade Stover · TE-EDGE · rank 130
A surprising call. With interior defensive lineman still to address, they spent Round 4, Pick 31 on Cade Stover, a TE-EDGE they were not short of.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Keith Randolph Jr. · DL-EDGE · rank 145
They paid up for Keith Randolph Jr. at No. 135 when waiting would have done the job. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.22 · Pick 158 · Jaylin Simpson · CB · rank 158
By-the-book stuff, Jaylin Simpson at the 158th pick squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R6.10 · Pick 185 · Ajani Cornelius · OT · rank 165
The board fumbled Ajani Cornelius all the way to pick No. 185, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Michael Trigg · TE · rank 234
Michael Trigg in slot 217 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Dominic Lovett · WR · rank 191
Somehow Dominic Lovett was still sitting there in pick 219, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.8 · Pick 228 · Ray Davis · RB · rank 232
They took Ray Davis at par in the 228th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
