The Packers put a flag in the ground for Myles Cole, 73 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. It is not that Green is a bad player; it is that the Packers had louder needs to answer first.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Green pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.30 · Pick 30 · Graham Barton · OT · rank 26
In slot 30 they get a building block for the line. A clean fit for the roster.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 49
A reach for Edgerrin Cooper in pick 41; a little patience would have been rewarded. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R2.11 · Pick 43 · T.J. Tampa · CB · rank 51
The board had cheaper options than T.J. Tampa at the 43rd overall pick, and it noticed. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R2.14 · Pick 46 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 42
They did well to land Javon Bullard in the 46th pick, just ahead of his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R2.24 · Pick 56 · Trey Benson · RB · rank 87
They talked themselves into Trey Benson at pick No. 56, and the board did not agree. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.2 · Pick 66 · Patrick Paul · OT · rank 69
Patrick Paul at No. 66 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.13 · Pick 77 · Jaylen Wright · RB · rank 71
Good price on Jaylen Wright in pick 77, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Mekhi Wingo · DT · rank 107
Mekhi Wingo at Round 3, Pick 25 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R3.26 · Pick 89 · Renardo Green · S · rank 76
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick No. 89 on Renardo Green with quarterback unsolved.
R4.6 · Pick 106 · Brenden Rice · WR · rank 96
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Brenden Rice at the 106th overall pick is the proof. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R4.9 · Pick 109 · Johnny Wilson · WR · rank 125
They liked Johnny Wilson enough to skip the value, taking him in the 109th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.12 · Pick 112 · Isaac Guerendo · RB · rank 128
Isaac Guerendo at the Round 4 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R4.17 · Pick 117 · Javon Foster · OT · rank 119
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Javon Foster. It fills a real need, too.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Myles Cole · DE-EDGE · rank 199
Myles Cole in slot 126 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R5.5 · Pick 141 · Tip Reiman · TE · rank 183
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tip Reiman in pick No. 141, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
