FutureC+
The Packers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. There is conviction, and then there is this. The Packers took Kyle Hergel a full 91 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.
That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
In the 25th overall pick they get a disruptor off the edge at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41
Rnd2
Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson in slot 41 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick58
Rnd2
Payton Wilson
They took Payton Wilson at par in pick No. 58, which is nothing to complain about. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick88
Rnd3
Max Melton
Max Melton slipping to No. 88 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91
Rnd3
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at the 91st pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick126
Rnd4
Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo in Round 4, Pick 26 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick169
Rnd5
Tanor Bortolini
A real head-scratcher, Tanor Bortolini in Round 5, Pick 33 is miles ahead of his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick171
Rnd5
Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at pick No. 171 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick172
Rnd5
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in slot 172 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick202
Rnd6
Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse at the 202nd overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick219
Rnd6
Nathaniel Watson
Nothing to complain about; Nathaniel Watson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick245
Rnd7
Jalen Sundell
Jalen Sundell in pick 245 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick256
Rnd7
Kyle Hergel
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Kyle Hergel. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick257
Rnd7
Trey Taylor
They jumped the gun on Trey Taylor, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
