The Packers spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Dadrion Taylor-Demerson, the No. 165 name on the board, in pick 203. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

Every board in the league had McGlothern lower, and that gap is the story. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 13
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a lockdown presence outside at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.20 · Pick 52 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 56
No drama and no debate, Edgerrin Cooper went about where he belonged in No. 52. A minor itch, scratched.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Jonathon Brooks · RB · rank 61
No edge and no loss on Jonathon Brooks in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.20 · Pick 84 · Sedrick Van Pran · C · rank 89
A straight-up fair deal on Sedrick Van Pran at the 84th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 78
Value with a capital V on Christian Mahogany in pick No. 88, a genuine coup. It fills a real need, too.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 96
They paid sticker price for Tykee Smith in slot 91, and that is fine. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Javon Foster · OT · rank 129
Javon Foster in the 126th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.32 · Pick 168 · Jaylen Wright · RB · rank 163
Good price on Jaylen Wright in pick 168, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Dadrion Taylor-Demerson · S · rank 165
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in No. 203 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
R6.41 · Pick 216 · Christian Jones · OT · rank 208
They read the board right and Christian Jones was the payoff at the Round 6 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R7.23 · Pick 243 · Dwight McGlothern · CB · rank 280
Dwight McGlothern at the 243rd overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R7.31 · Pick 251 · Nathaniel Watson · LB · rank 259
They paid up for Nathaniel Watson at pick No. 251 when waiting would have done the job. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
