Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Packers.

When a board-topper like Trevin Wallace slides to pick No. 255, you do not overthink it, and the Packers did not. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The cost of the Goncalves reach is exactly the players who went right after him. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. On the needs board they went 3 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 26
They took Cooper DeJean at par in the 25th pick, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Cooper Beebe · OG · rank 47
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cooper Beebe. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Max Melton · CB · rank 76
Max Melton at No. 58 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Dominick Puni · OT · rank 89
Dominick Puni at slot 88 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Matt Goncalves · OT · rank 114
A big swing on Matt Goncalves at pick No. 91, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Kalen King · CB · rank 139
They went early on Kalen King in the 126th overall pick, and the value did not follow. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Sione Vaki · S · rank 158
A tidy bit of business in the 169th pick, where Sione Vaki graded well above the range. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Jaylan Ford · LB · rank 205
No edge and no loss on Jaylan Ford in Round 6, Pick 27; it is a wash and a sensible one. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Caedan Wallace · OT · rank 213
Caedan Wallace at the Round 6 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It fills a real need, too.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Kimani Vidal · RB · rank 253
They paid a round early for Kimani Vidal in pick 245, more than the board wanted. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Trevin Wallace · LB · rank 233
The board fumbled Trevin Wallace all the way to pick No. 255, and they scooped it up. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
