The Dallas Gant selection is the head-turner. The Packers reached 66 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

That Reiman pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Troy Fautanu · OT · rank 22
In pick No. 25 they get a cornerstone up front. A real need, handled.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 26
Nice patience on Cooper DeJean, who had no business lasting to pick 41. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · T'Vondre Sweat · DT · rank 45
A tidy bit of business in the Round 2 slot, where T'Vondre Sweat graded well above the range. It fills a real need, too.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Dadrion Taylor-Demerson · S · rank 86
Fair-plus on Dadrion Taylor-Demerson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R3.36 · Pick 99 · Beaux Limmer · C · rank 126
Beaux Limmer in Round 3, Pick 36 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 113
They let Cedric Gray come to them and pounced at No. 126. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R5.18 · Pick 154 · Jarrian Jones · CB · rank 136
They robbed the room for Jarrian Jones here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R5.19 · Pick 155 · Malik Mustapha · S · rank 170
The board had cheaper options than Malik Mustapha at pick No. 155, and it noticed. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Tanor Bortolini · C · rank 187
Value said wait; Tanor Bortolini in pick 169 says they were not listening. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Kendall Milton · RB · rank 201
Kendall Milton in slot 202 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R6.34 · Pick 209 · Tip Reiman · TE · rank 182
A tight end of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Bub Means · WR · rank 245
Bub Means in No. 219 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Edefuan Ulofoshio · LB · rank 236
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Edefuan Ulofoshio in the 245th pick. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
R7.34 · Pick 254 · Tyler Owens · S · rank 255
No edge and no loss on Tyler Owens in the 254th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Dallas Gant · LB · rank 321
Dallas Gant at pick 255 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
