B

Green Bay Packers

Dixon should have been long gone. The Packers pounced, and earned a B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Johnny Dixon got past him. The Packers do not have to explain a thing at Round 6, Pick 44. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The Gore Jr. pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Byron Murphy II · DL · rank 18
They did well to land Byron Murphy II in the 25th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. The roster fit checks out.
R2.16 · Pick 48 · T.J. Tampa · CB · rank 50
They paid sticker price for T.J. Tampa in slot 48, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 59
Kingsley Suamataia in Round 2, Pick 26 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 85
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jaden Hicks in the 88th pick. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Malik Washington · WR · rank 94
A straight-up fair deal on Malik Washington at pick 91, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Mohamed Kamara · DL-EDGE · rank 133
Mohamed Kamara at No. 126 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Walter Rouse · OT · rank 163
Walter Rouse at the Round 5 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Frank Gore Jr. · RB · rank 226
Frank Gore Jr. at pick No. 202 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.37 · Pick 212 · Curtis Jacobs · LB · rank 197
Curtis Jacobs at No. 212 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. A minor itch, scratched.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Johnny Dixon · CB · rank 190
Steal is underselling it; Johnny Dixon at pick No. 219 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Tylan Grable · OT · rank 231
Tylan Grable in Round 7, Pick 25 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Bub Means · WR · rank 245
A tidy bit of business in the Round 7 slot, where Bub Means graded well above the range. It fills a real need, too.
