FutureB-
The phones sank the Packers this weekend: D-. There is reaching, and then there is Austin Barber at slot 58. The Packers jumped the board by 38 and dared it to prove them wrong. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D- is the result.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Gill-Howard at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, edge rusher very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick52
Rnd2
Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter in pick No. 52 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick58
Rnd2
Austin Barber
They talked themselves into Austin Barber at No. 58, and the board did not agree. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick84
Rnd3
Max Klare
Max Klare slipping to Round 3, Pick 20 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick92
Rnd3
Daylen Everette
Value with a capital V on Daylen Everette in the 92nd pick, a genuine coup. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick119
Rnd4
Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at the Round 4 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick120
Rnd4
Logan Jones
They liked Logan Jones enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 120. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick156
Rnd5
Bryce Boettcher
A reach on Bryce Boettcher in pick 156; the board had better options right there. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick158
Rnd5
Skyler Gill-Howard
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at Round 5, Pick 20 is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
Pick199
Rnd6
Pat Coogan
Pat Coogan at slot 199 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick236
Rnd7
Jeff Caldwell
The board had Jeff Caldwell higher than the 236th overall pick, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick254
Rnd7
Jack Kelly
Jack Kelly in No. 254 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick257
Rnd7
Cole Payton
Somehow Cole Payton was still sitting there in pick No. 257, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
