The Packers clearly saw something nobody else did in Dwight McGlothern, taking him 38 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

The Packers indulged a want in Mustapha while a need in quarterback, wide receiver and other spots stayed open. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.27 · Pick 27 · Quinyon Mitchell · CB · rank 30
In pick 27 they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Kamren Kinchens · S · rank 34
Kamren Kinchens at Round 2, Pick 9 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 58
A straight-up fair deal on Edgerrin Cooper at the 57th pick, value and slot in agreement. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · McKinnley Jackson · DL · rank 88
No edge and no loss on McKinnley Jackson in slot 88; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R3.27 · Pick 90 · Zak Zinter · OG · rank 95
By-the-book stuff, Zak Zinter at the 90th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Bucky Irving · RB · rank 93
They took Bucky Irving at par in pick No. 91, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Will Shipley · RB · rank 133
A reach for Will Shipley in the 125th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Malik Mustapha · S · rank 139
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback, wide receiver and other spots to take Malik Mustapha, a safety that was not the priority.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Christian Jones · OT · rank 197
Nothing to complain about; Christian Jones went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Omar Speights · LB · rank 208
Omar Speights in slot 217 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Dwight McGlothern · CB · rank 257
Value said wait; Dwight McGlothern in Round 6, Pick 44 says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · Xavier Thomas · DE-EDGE · rank 255
The board had cheaper options than Xavier Thomas at the 246th overall pick, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
