D

Green Bay Packers

The phones sank the Packers this weekend: D.

Value C+

Future A

The Packers put a flag in the ground for Joe Milton III, 47 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.13 · Pick 45 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 48
A straight-up fair deal on Edgerrin Cooper at Round 2, Pick 13, value and slot in agreement. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R2.19 · Pick 51 · Mike Sainristil · CB · rank 51
They took Mike Sainristil at par in slot 51, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Ruke Orhorhoro · DT · rank 61
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ruke Orhorhoro. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.20 · Pick 84 · Patrick Paul · OT · rank 85
By-the-book stuff, Patrick Paul at pick 84 squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R3.23 · Pick 86 · Dadrion Taylor-Demerson · S · rank 80
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in the 86th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Devontez Walker · WR · rank 86
No drama and no debate, Devontez Walker went about where he belonged in pick No. 88. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Cole Bishop · S · rank 92
Cole Bishop in Round 3, Pick 28 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
R3.30 · Pick 93 · MarShawn Lloyd · RB · rank 94
MarShawn Lloyd in pick 93 is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R3.36 · Pick 99 · Zak Zinter · OG · rank 109
Zak Zinter at the Round 3 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Jared Wiley · TE · rank 137
The board had cheaper options than Jared Wiley at the 126th overall pick, and it noticed. It fills a real need, too.
R4.28 · Pick 128 · Myles Cole · DE-EDGE · rank 157
They left a pile of value on the table to take Myles Cole this early at slot 128. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.8 · Pick 144 · Khristian Boyd · DL-EDGE · rank 187
Khristian Boyd at pick No. 144 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 216
This one needs a full-page explanation: Joe Milton III in No. 169, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.20 · Pick 195 · Edefuan Ulofoshio · LB · rank 205
A reach on Edefuan Ulofoshio in the 195th pick; the board had better options right there. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Ryan Flournoy · WR · rank 195
Fair-plus on Ryan Flournoy, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R7.19 · Pick 239 · Jaylon Carlies · S · rank 270
Value said wait; Jaylon Carlies in the 239th pick says they were not listening. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
