There is a lot to like until you notice edge rusher is still a hole. The Packers never got to the one that mattered most.

The cost of the Smith reach is exactly the players who went right after him. That Powers-Johnson pick is the receipt they will wave around later. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 26
In the 25th pick they get an island corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Jackson Powers-Johnson · C · rank 32
Nice patience on Jackson Powers-Johnson, who had no business lasting to pick No. 41. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R2.14 · Pick 46 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 49
They paid sticker price for Edgerrin Cooper in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 98
Christian Mahogany at the 88th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Maason Smith · DT · rank 111
Maason Smith in slot 91 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
