The Packers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 250 on Fred Davis a full 145 spots early.
However the rest shakes out, Paul Jr. at that price is a win they earned. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.
On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most. Nothing gained and nothing lost at the table.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick No. 26 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
They jumped the gun on Zy Alexander, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
A big swing on Hollin Pierce at pick 90, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Fair-plus on Jay Higgins, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Chris Paul Jr. in Round 6, Pick 10 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
The board fumbled Willie Lampkin all the way to the Round 6 slot, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Value said wait; Savion Williams in No. 210 says they were not listening. A need, and now a little less of one.
Fred Davis in the 250th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
