FutureB-
Nobody dealt better than the Packers this weekend: B. The Packers spent real capital to be 55 picks early on Hayden Hatten, and the board is going to hold them to it. The bottom line is a respectable B.
Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Jones falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
The Khalil Mack pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Troy Fautanu
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a building block for the line. A real need, handled.
Pick41
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
This one needs a full-page explanation: T'Vondre Sweat in the 41st overall pick, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick57
Rnd2
D.J. James
D.J. James at pick 57 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick92
Rnd3
Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith in slot 92 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick125
Rnd4
Jaylen Wright
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jaylen Wright this early at No. 125. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick135
Rnd4
Ty'Ron Hopper
A conviction pick on Ty'Ron Hopper at pick No. 135 that the board grades a round light. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick203
Rnd6
Christian Jones
A tidy bit of business in the Round 6 slot, where Christian Jones graded well above the range. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick217
Rnd6
Matthew Jones
A reach on Matthew Jones in No. 217; the board had better options right there. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick219
Rnd6
Xavier Thomas
Xavier Thomas at the 219th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick246
Rnd7
Hayden Hatten
Hayden Hatten in pick 246 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
