You build a draft on nights like this. Trevor Keegan had no business being available in the 219th pick, and the Packers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.
A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick-by-Pick
JC Latham slid further than he should have, and the 25th pick is lovely value for the offensive lineman. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Chris Braswell in the 41st overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Circle this one: Tyler Guyton at pick 58 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
The board fumbled DJ James all the way to the Round 3 slot, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
They did well to land Tyler Davis in Round 4, Pick 26, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Nice patience on Kitan Oladapo, who had no business lasting to pick No. 169. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
They will replay Tip Reiman at slot 202 for years; that is how good the value is. The roster fit checks out.
You do not let an offensive lineman like Trevor Keegan reach No. 219 and blink. They did not. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Cornelius Johnson at the 245th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
A straight-up fair deal on Sam Hartman at slot 255, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
