The phones were a trap the Packers kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D- is the result.

They are betting Jones proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They will answer for taking safety early while edge rusher and quarterback went begging.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.18 · Pick 50 · Kiran Amegadjie · OT · rank 52
They took Kiran Amegadjie at par in pick No. 50, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
R2.19 · Pick 51 · Jonathon Brooks · RB · rank 61
A reach for Jonathon Brooks in the Round 2 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R2.20 · Pick 52 · Payton Wilson · LB · rank 65
They jumped the gun on Payton Wilson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 63
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Javon Bullard. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R3.20 · Pick 84 · Mike Sainristil · CB · rank 80
A tidy little value on Mike Sainristil in the 84th pick, a step better than break-even. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Tyler Davis · DT · rank 95
No drama and no debate, Tyler Davis went about where he belonged in slot 88. It fills a real need, too.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 96
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick 91 on Tykee Smith with edge rusher and quarterback unsolved.
R3.34 · Pick 97 · Jarrian Jones · CB · rank 124
A big swing on Jarrian Jones at No. 97, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.37 · Pick 100 · Malik Washington · WR · rank 120
They left a pile of value on the table to take Malik Washington this early at the 100th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Drake Nugent · C · rank 150
They talked themselves into Drake Nugent at pick No. 126, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R5.32 · Pick 168 · McCallan Castles · TE · rank 156
Quietly one of the better values of the day, McCallan Castles at the Round 5 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Rasheen Ali · RB · rank 207
By-the-book stuff, Rasheen Ali at Round 6, Pick 28 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.41 · Pick 216 · JD Bertrand · LB · rank 205
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and JD Bertrand at the 216th overall pick is the proof. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
