FutureB-
Mondon Jr. should have been long gone. The Packers pounced, and earned a C-. The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Smael Mondon Jr., the 249th pick, roughly 138 picks past where he belonged. A mixed bag that lands at C-.
They will need Cook to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere.
A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.
Pick Analysis
Pick44
Rnd2
Zy Alexander
They jumped the gun on Zy Alexander, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick54
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at slot 54 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick62
Rnd2
Jordan Burch
They reached into another round for Jordan Burch, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick76
Rnd3
Jalen Royals
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jalen Royals at the 76th overall pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick87
Rnd3
Jalon Walker
Taking Jalon Walker in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick88
Rnd3
Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in pick No. 88 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick123
Rnd4
Mello Dotson
They went early on Mello Dotson in pick 123, and the value did not follow. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick125
Rnd4
Rylie Mills
They paid up for Rylie Mills at Round 4, Pick 24 when waiting would have done the job. It fills a real need, too.
Pick150
Rnd5
Mason Taylor
Circle this one: Mason Taylor at Round 5, Pick 11 is a fall that decides a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick160
Rnd5
Chris Paul Jr.
They will replay Chris Paul Jr. at No. 160 for years; that is how good the value is. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick162
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick No. 162 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick166
Rnd5
CJ West
A big swing on CJ West at the 166th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick169
Rnd5
Brady Cook
They left a pile of value on the table to take Brady Cook this early at slot 169. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick170
Rnd5
Cam Skattebo
They barely believed it either: Cam Skattebo still on the board at the 170th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick172
Rnd5
Jake Majors
Jake Majors at the Round 5 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick174
Rnd5
Nohl Williams
They talked themselves into Nohl Williams at pick 174, and the board did not agree. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick190
Rnd6
Dylan Sampson
A running back of that caliber at slot 190 is the definition of value, full stop. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick200
Rnd6
Mitchell Evans
They robbed the room for Mitchell Evans here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick203
Rnd6
Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter in Round 6, Pick 25 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick204
Rnd6
Cody Simon
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Cody Simon in the 204th pick, plain and simple. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick239
Rnd7
Jonas Sanker
Somehow Jonas Sanker was still sitting there in the Round 7 slot, and they pounced on premier safety value. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick249
Rnd7
Smael Mondon Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Smael Mondon Jr. at pick No. 249 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick251
Rnd7
Garrett Dellinger
They reached a country mile for Garrett Dellinger at No. 251, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
