Green Bay Packers

More right than wrong for the Packers, and a B- to prove it.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Packers took Braden Fiske a full 76 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

Linton at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.9 · Pick 9 · JC Latham · OT · rank 16
In pick 9 they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Cooper Beebe · OG · rank 50
They went early on Cooper Beebe in the 41st overall pick, and the value did not follow. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R2.11 · Pick 43 · Kalen King · CB · rank 45
A straight-up fair deal on Kalen King at pick No. 43, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R3.9 · Pick 73 · Blake Corum · RB · rank 71
No edge and no loss on Blake Corum in No. 73; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.18 · Pick 82 · Amarius Mims · OT · rank 84
Amarius Mims at Round 3, Pick 18 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.9 · Pick 109 · James Williams · S · rank 123
A conviction pick on James Williams at the Round 4 slot that the board grades a round light. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Darius Robinson · DL-EDGE · rank 145
Darius Robinson at the Round 4 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R6.12 · Pick 187 · Ainias Smith · WR · rank 175
Ainias Smith is a better player than slot 187 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Erick All · TE · rank 234
The board had cheaper options than Erick All at Round 6, Pick 42, and it noticed. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Steve Linton · LB-EDGE · rank 182
They robbed the room for Steve Linton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.10 · Pick 230 · Braden Fiske · DL · rank 306
They reached a country mile for Braden Fiske at pick No. 230, and the board is aghast. It fills a real need, too.
