FutureB
The Packers cashed the board's mistake on Grable: B. You could see the war room lean forward. Tylan Grable at pick 255 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.
The cost of the Nourzad reach is exactly the players who went right after him. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
In the 25th overall pick they get a cornerstone up front, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44
Rnd2
Cooper DeJean
Cooper DeJean in No. 44 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick58
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in the 58th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick88
Rnd3
Max Melton
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Max Melton at pick 88 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick101
Rnd4
Christian Mahogany
They did well to land Christian Mahogany in slot 101, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick126
Rnd4
Mohamed Kamara
A straight-up fair deal on Mohamed Kamara at pick No. 126, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick142
Rnd5
Hunter Nourzad
A premium they did not need to pay, Hunter Nourzad a notch or two before his time. It fills a real need, too.
Pick169
Rnd5
Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick202
Rnd6
Jase McClellan
Jase McClellan at the 202nd pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick208
Rnd6
Cornelius Johnson
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick No. 208 is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
Pick219
Rnd6
Nathaniel Watson
A clean, defensible pick in Round 6, Pick 44 with a little surplus value in Nathaniel Watson. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick245
Rnd7
Sam Hartman
A reach for Sam Hartman in the Round 7 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick255
Rnd7
Tylan Grable
Tylan Grable in the 255th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick256
Rnd7
Daijahn Anthony
They will replay Daijahn Anthony at slot 256 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick257
Rnd7
Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor at No. 257 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
