Best value of the weekend goes to the Packers for Davis: D-. The Packers put a flag in the ground for Trey Taylor, 36 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.
That Davis pick is the receipt they will wave around later. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
The Williams pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and edge rusher is still a hole.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
In pick No. 25 they get a long-term starter on the line, and a steal at that.
Pick41
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette at the Round 2 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick58
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
Value with a capital V on T'Vondre Sweat in the 58th overall pick, a genuine coup. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick66
Rnd3
DJ James
Quietly one of the better values of the day, DJ James at the 66th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick71
Rnd3
Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at Round 3, Pick 7 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick88
Rnd3
Renardo Green
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Renardo Green in pick 88. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick90
Rnd3
Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie in the Round 3 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick91
Rnd3
Cade Stover
Cade Stover slipping to slot 91 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick104
Rnd4
Ray Davis
They took Ray Davis at par in the 104th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick126
Rnd4
James Williams
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, James Williams adds a linebacker and leaves edge rusher untouched.
Pick138
Rnd5
Trevor Keegan
By-the-book stuff, Trevor Keegan at pick No. 138 squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick162
Rnd5
Kitan Oladapo
A quiet steal in No. 162: Kitan Oladapo for less than the market said. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick169
Rnd5
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at slot 169 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick186
Rnd6
Tyrone Tracy Jr.
They robbed the room for Tyrone Tracy Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick202
Rnd6
Trente Jones
The board had Trente Jones higher than the Round 6 slot, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick219
Rnd6
Isaiah Davis
Circle this one: Isaiah Davis at the 219th pick is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick226
Rnd7
Trey Taylor
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Trey Taylor. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick245
Rnd7
Nick Gargiulo
A real head-scratcher, Nick Gargiulo in the 245th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick255
Rnd7
Omar Brown
A big swing on Omar Brown at No. 255, well ahead of any board in the building. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
