If confidence were a draft strategy, the Packers would have aced it. Dallas Gant at pick No. 219 is 101 spots clear of where he belonged.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Lovett. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Spending an early pick on safety with quarterback, wide receiver and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.9 · Pick 41 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 42
No drama and no debate, Javon Bullard went about where he belonged in No. 41. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R2.16 · Pick 48 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 49
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Edgerrin Cooper. A minor itch, scratched.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Cooper Beebe · OG · rank 47
Cooper Beebe is a better player than the Round 2 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Jonathon Brooks · RB · rank 48
They will replay Jonathon Brooks at the 91st overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.29 · Pick 92 · Dominick Puni · OT · rank 88
A tidy little value on Dominick Puni in slot 92, a step better than break-even. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.33 · Pick 96 · Renardo Green · S · rank 77
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Renardo Green at safety with quarterback, wide receiver and other spots open.
R4.16 · Pick 116 · Javon Foster · OT · rank 119
Javon Foster in the 116th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Bucky Irving · RB · rank 91
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Bucky Irving in Round 4, Pick 26, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Jaylin Simpson · CB · rank 137
Jaylin Simpson in slot 169 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Brennan Jackson · DE-EDGE · rank 155
You do not let an edge rusher like Brennan Jackson reach No. 202 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Dallas Gant · LB · rank 320
They reached a country mile for Dallas Gant at pick No. 219, and the board is aghast. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Fabien Lovett · DL · rank 183
They barely believed it either: Fabien Lovett still on the board at the Round 7 slot. The roster fit checks out.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Trente Jones · OT · rank 194
Circle this one: Trente Jones at the 255th pick is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
