FutureA+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Packers and Judkins: B+. When a board-topper like Quinshon Judkins slides to No. 196, you do not overthink it, and the Packers did not.
The Batty reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.
The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick54
Rnd2
Grey Zabel
A straight-up fair deal on Grey Zabel at No. 54, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick87
Rnd3
Jalon Walker
Circle this one: Jalon Walker at the 87th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick89
Rnd3
Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at pick No. 89 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick95
Rnd3
Quinn Ewers
Quinn Ewers at slot 95 is money in the bank, a quarterback taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick122
Rnd4
Jack Bech
Somehow Jack Bech was still sitting there in the Round 4 slot, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick126
Rnd4
Darius Alexander
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Darius Alexander. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick127
Rnd4
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at the 127th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick128
Rnd4
Xavier Scott
Xavier Scott in Round 4, Pick 27 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick158
Rnd5
Chris Paul Jr.
They barely believed it either: Chris Paul Jr. still on the board at Round 5, Pick 21. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick196
Rnd6
Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins in pick 196 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick199
Rnd6
Mason Taylor
A tight end of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick200
Rnd6
Jake Majors
You do not let an offensive lineman like Jake Majors reach pick No. 200 and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick202
Rnd6
Kevin Winston Jr.
Taking Kevin Winston Jr. in the 202nd overall pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick204
Rnd6
Elic Ayomanor
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Elic Ayomanor in slot 204, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick207
Rnd6
Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in the 207th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick211
Rnd6
Tyler Batty
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Batty in No. 211, miles early. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick212
Rnd6
Cam Skattebo
They will replay Cam Skattebo at the 212th pick for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick214
Rnd6
Nick Nash
A real head-scratcher, Nick Nash in slot 214 is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick215
Rnd6
Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at the Round 6 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick216
Rnd6
Addison West
The board fumbled Addison West all the way to the 216th overall pick, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick222
Rnd7
Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at No. 222 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick237
Rnd7
Jacobe Covington
Jacobe Covington at pick No. 237 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick241
Rnd7
Jared Wilson
They robbed the room for Jared Wilson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick243
Rnd7
Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock in Round 7, Pick 27 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick250
Rnd7
James Burnip
Steal is underselling it; James Burnip at slot 250 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick256
Rnd7
Ben Sauls
A top-tier specialist at a bargain, Ben Sauls in pick No. 256, plain and simple. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
