The board owed the Packers one, and it paid up: Caedan Wallace, the No. 213 name on the board, sitting there at slot 255 like a gift left on the doorstep.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Every board in the league had Rogers lower, and that gap is the story.

Spending an early pick on safety with quarterback open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.32 · Pick 32 · Nate Wiggins · CB · rank 20
In pick No. 32 they get a lockdown presence outside, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Jordan Morgan · OT · rank 37
Jordan Morgan at No. 41 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Chris Braswell · LB-EDGE · rank 44
They let Chris Braswell come to them and pounced at the 58th pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · T.J. Tampa · CB · rank 51
T.J. Tampa in Round 3, Pick 25 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.26 · Pick 89 · Junior Colson · LB · rank 52
Taking Junior Colson in pick 89 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Kamren Kinchens · S · rank 64
Kamren Kinchens in the 91st overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R3.32 · Pick 95 · Cole Bishop · S · rank 104
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the Round 3 slot on Cole Bishop with quarterback unsolved.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Isaac Guerendo · RB · rank 128
Isaac Guerendo in slot 126 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Justin Rogers · DL · rank 193
A real head-scratcher, Justin Rogers in Round 5, Pick 33 is miles ahead of his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Cornelius Johnson · WR · rank 188
A slide stopped in the Round 6 slot, with Cornelius Johnson worth more than the price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Julian Pearl · OT · rank 204
A quiet steal in pick No. 219: Julian Pearl for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Edefuan Ulofoshio · LB · rank 236
Edefuan Ulofoshio is a better player than No. 245 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
R7.32 · Pick 252 · Brevyn Spann-Ford · TE · rank 249
Brevyn Spann-Ford in the 252nd pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A need, and now a little less of one.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Caedan Wallace · OT · rank 213
Circle this one: Caedan Wallace at slot 255 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
