FutureB
Grand theft in pick No. 243: the Packers steal Washington and grade out a B+. Somebody in Round 7, Pick 23 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Packers sat still while Tahj Washington, the No. 187 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.
They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Reaching for Holker left real value on the table behind him. The Gray pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback.
That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick50
Rnd2
Kris Jenkins
They took Kris Jenkins at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick62
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper slid further than he should have, and No. 62 is lovely value for the linebacker. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick72
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
They paid sticker price for Mike Sainristil in the 72nd overall pick, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick85
Rnd3
Dominick Puni
No drama and no debate, Dominick Puni went about where he belonged in pick No. 85. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick88
Rnd3
Blake Corum
A tidy little value on Blake Corum in slot 88, a step better than break-even. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91
Rnd3
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at pick 91 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick115
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending Round 4, Pick 15 on Cedric Gray with quarterback unsolved.
Pick119
Rnd4
Beaux Limmer
A straight-up fair deal on Beaux Limmer at the 119th pick, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick120
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in Round 4, Pick 20 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick126
Rnd4
Dallin Holker
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dallin Holker this early at pick No. 126. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick161
Rnd5
Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha in slot 161 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick169
Rnd5
Khristian Boyd
They liked Khristian Boyd enough to skip the value, taking him in the 169th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick202
Rnd6
Kamal Hadden
Somehow Kamal Hadden was still sitting there in the Round 6 slot, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick203
Rnd6
Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in pick 203 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick212
Rnd6
Logan Lee
Logan Lee in No. 212 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219
Rnd6
Caedan Wallace
Good price on Caedan Wallace in the 219th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick236
Rnd7
Trevin Wallace
A clean, defensible pick in No. 236 with a little surplus value in Trevin Wallace. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick243
Rnd7
Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington in pick 243 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick245
Rnd7
Daijahn Anthony
Daijahn Anthony is a better player than the 245th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick255
Rnd7
Jalen Sundell
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jalen Sundell at pick No. 255 is the proof. The roster fit checks out.
Pick256
Rnd7
Jordan Whittington
Jordan Whittington in the 256th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It fills a real need, too.
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.
