The phones sank the Packers this weekend: D-. The Packers put a flag in the ground for Josiah Ezirim, 38 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. The process wobbled, and the D- is where it lands.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. On value alone, Jones makes the weekend a net positive. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.
The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.
Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Quinyon Mitchell
In pick No. 25 they get a press-man option on the boundary. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick55
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at No. 55 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick58
Rnd2
Roman Wilson
Value with a capital V on Roman Wilson in pick 58, a genuine coup. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick66
Rnd3
Kris Jenkins
Nice patience on Kris Jenkins, who had no business lasting to the 66th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick71
Rnd3
Renardo Green
No drama and no debate, Renardo Green went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 7. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick86
Rnd3
Jaden Hicks
They took Jaden Hicks at par in slot 86, which is nothing to complain about. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick88
Rnd3
Dominick Puni
No edge and no loss on Dominick Puni in the 88th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick90
Rnd3
DeWayne Carter
A reach for DeWayne Carter in pick 90; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick104
Rnd4
Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at Round 4, Pick 4 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick110
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
They paid sticker price for Cedric Gray in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick126
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in slot 126 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick128
Rnd4
Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten in the 128th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick138
Rnd5
Jalyx Hunt
A conviction pick on Jalyx Hunt at pick No. 138 that the board grades a round light. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick155
Rnd5
Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at No. 155 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick158
Rnd5
Dallin Holker
They did well to land Dallin Holker in pick No. 158, just ahead of his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick160
Rnd5
Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones in the 160th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick162
Rnd5
Malik Mustapha
A straight-up fair deal on Malik Mustapha at slot 162, value and slot in agreement. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick163
Rnd5
Brandon Coleman
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Brandon Coleman well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick169
Rnd5
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at pick 169 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick181
Rnd6
Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd at the 181st overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick186
Rnd6
Myles Cole
The board had cheaper options than Myles Cole at the Round 6 slot, and it noticed. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick202
Rnd6
Trente Jones
Trente Jones at Round 6, Pick 27 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick219
Rnd6
Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace at pick No. 219 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick225
Rnd7
Javontae Jean-Baptiste
Javontae Jean-Baptiste in the Round 7 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick226
Rnd7
Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at the 226th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick245
Rnd7
Trey Taylor
They jumped the gun on Trey Taylor, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick253
Rnd7
Josiah Ezirim
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Josiah Ezirim. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick255
Rnd7
Omar Brown
This one needs a full-page explanation: Omar Brown in Round 7, Pick 35, miles early. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
