The Dallas Gant pick is the one that will follow the Packers into the fall. They took him 65 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

With edge rusher, tight end and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on linebacker is the choice that costs them. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Terrion Arnold · CB · rank 18
In slot 25 they get a potential shutdown corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.16 · Pick 48 · Payton Wilson · LB · rank 57
They went early on Payton Wilson in the 48th overall pick, and the value did not follow. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Zach Frazier · C · rank 62
Zach Frazier at the Round 2 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 85
They did well to land Jaden Hicks in pick 88, just ahead of his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 98
A straight-up fair deal on Christian Mahogany at the 91st pick, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
R4.14 · Pick 114 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 113
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went linebacker with Cedric Gray while clear needs at edge rusher, tight end and other spots sat open.
R4.16 · Pick 116 · Isaac Guerendo · RB · rank 128
They jumped the gun on Isaac Guerendo, taking him earlier than his grade liked. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Jarrian Jones · CB · rank 136
They paid a round early for Jarrian Jones in pick No. 126, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 160
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tykee Smith at the 169th pick. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
R6.30 · Pick 205 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 200
A clean, defensible pick in slot 205 with a little surplus value in Joe Milton III. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Edefuan Ulofoshio · LB · rank 236
Edefuan Ulofoshio at the Round 6 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Bub Means · WR · rank 245
No drama and no debate, Bub Means went about where he belonged in pick 245. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R7.29 · Pick 249 · Tyler Owens · S · rank 254
By-the-book stuff, Tyler Owens at Round 7, Pick 29 squarely in line with his ranking. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Dallas Gant · LB · rank 320
Dallas Gant at the 255th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
