There is conviction, and then there is this. The Packers took Zion Logue a full 45 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Melton. On the needs board they went 8 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Amarius Mims · OT · rank 23
In pick 25 they get a long-term starter on the line. A clean fit for the roster.
R2.30 · Pick 62 · T'Vondre Sweat · DT · rank 64
No drama and no debate, T'Vondre Sweat went about where he belonged in the 62nd pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R2.32 · Pick 64 · Chris Braswell · LB-EDGE · rank 53
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Chris Braswell in the 64th overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Calen Bullock · S · rank 88
By-the-book stuff, Calen Bullock at pick No. 88 squarely in line with his ranking. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Max Melton · CB · rank 67
Circle this one: Max Melton at Round 3, Pick 28 is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.32 · Pick 95 · Dominick Puni · OT · rank 89
A reasonable price with a little left over, Dominick Puni in the Round 3 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R3.33 · Pick 96 · MarShawn Lloyd · RB · rank 94
MarShawn Lloyd at No. 96 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R4.13 · Pick 113 · Theo Johnson · TE · rank 105
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Theo Johnson at pick No. 113 is the proof. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Ryan Flournoy · WR · rank 195
Ryan Flournoy in slot 169 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Eric Watts · DL-EDGE · rank 239
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Eric Watts. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R6.37 · Pick 212 · Nathaniel Watson · LB · rank 207
Good price on Nathaniel Watson in pick 212, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R6.43 · Pick 218 · Trey Taylor · S · rank 230
They went early on Trey Taylor in the Round 6 slot, and the value did not follow. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 216
Joe Milton III at the 219th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the quarterback. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Keilan Robinson · RB · rank 280
Keilan Robinson at Round 7, Pick 25 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Zion Logue · DL · rank 300
This one needs a full-page explanation: Zion Logue in pick 255, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
