The Packers went off the board in a big way for Tip Reiman, 45 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. They will answer for taking safety early while edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots went begging.

That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.28 · Pick 28 · Kool-Aid McKinstry · CB · rank 23
A tidy little value on Kool-Aid McKinstry in pick No. 28, a step better than break-even. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Graham Barton · OT · rank 25
Nice patience on Graham Barton, who had no business lasting to the 41st pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R2.18 · Pick 50 · Junior Colson · LB · rank 52
Junior Colson at No. 50 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor itch, scratched.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 85
Jaden Hicks at slot 58 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 98
A premium they did not need to pay, Christian Mahogany a notch or two before his time. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Cole Bishop · S · rank 104
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Cole Bishop in Round 3, Pick 28 leaves edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots for later.
R4.2 · Pick 102 · Elijah Jones · CB · rank 115
They went early on Elijah Jones in the Round 4 slot, and the value did not follow. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Isaac Guerendo · RB · rank 128
Isaac Guerendo in Round 4, Pick 26 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.28 · Pick 128 · Michael Pratt · QB · rank 140
They liked Michael Pratt enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 128. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.1 · Pick 137 · Tip Reiman · TE · rank 182
A big swing on Tip Reiman at No. 137, well ahead of any board in the building. The roster fit checks out.
R5.24 · Pick 160 · Tanor Bortolini · C · rank 187
They reached a country mile for Tanor Bortolini at the 160th pick, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
