FutureB
A solid, sensible weekend for the Packers: B-. They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Maema Njongmeta, 74 picks early at the 255th overall pick.
They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They banked enough surplus on Melton to cover a lot of smaller sins.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Cooper DeJean
In slot 27 they get a lockdown presence outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick55
Rnd2
Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins at the 55th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick58
Rnd2
Payton Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Payton Wilson at No. 58 squarely in line with his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick88
Rnd3
Max Melton
A quiet steal in the 88th pick: Max Melton for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick90
Rnd3
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in the Round 3 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick91
Rnd3
Gabriel Murphy
No drama and no debate, Gabriel Murphy went about where he belonged in pick 91. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick126
Rnd4
Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten in pick No. 126 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick158
Rnd5
Marist Liufau
A reach on Marist Liufau in No. 158; the board had better options right there. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick169
Rnd5
Tanor Bortolini
A big swing on Tanor Bortolini at the 169th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. The roster fit checks out.
Pick198
Rnd6
Garret Greenfield
A wild overpay on Garret Greenfield in the Round 6 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick202
Rnd6
Dominique Hampton
They talked themselves into Dominique Hampton at pick 202, and the board did not agree. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick219
Rnd6
Austin Reed
They reached a country mile for Austin Reed at slot 219, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick245
Rnd7
Jalen Sundell
Jalen Sundell in Round 7, Pick 25 is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick255
Rnd7
Maema Njongmeta
Maema Njongmeta at the 255th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
