The Packers cashed the board's mistake on McCord: B+. Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Kyle McCord got past him. The Packers do not have to explain a thing at the Round 6 slot. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.
Williams has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.
The Paul Jr. pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, running back and other spots.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
Jalon Walker
In the 24th overall pick they get a three-down second-level presence. More want than need.
Pick59
Rnd2
Tre Harris
A quiet steal in pick No. 59: Tre Harris for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick87
Rnd3
Marcus Mbow
They will replay Marcus Mbow at Round 3, Pick 23 for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick97
Rnd3
Chris Paul Jr.
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Chris Paul Jr. at linebacker with edge rusher, running back and other spots open.
Pick123
Rnd4
Jared Wilson
Value with a capital V on Jared Wilson in pick 123, a genuine coup. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick127
Rnd4
Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips is a better player than the Round 4 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick128
Rnd4
Cody Simon
A want over a need in the 128th pick: Cody Simon adds a linebacker while edge rusher, running back and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick160
Rnd5
Mello Dotson
Mello Dotson at No. 160 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick200
Rnd6
Kyle McCord
Somehow Kyle McCord was still sitting there in pick No. 200, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick203
Rnd6
CJ West
CJ West in the 203rd pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick204
Rnd6
Jack Kiser
A straight-up fair deal on Jack Kiser at No. 204, value and slot in agreement. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick239
Rnd7
Jonas Sanker
You do not let a safety like Jonas Sanker reach pick 239 and blink. They did not. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick243
Rnd7
Brandon Adams
Brandon Adams at the 243rd overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick251
Rnd7
Nohl Williams
A real head-scratcher, Nohl Williams in Round 7, Pick 33 is miles ahead of his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick252
Rnd7
Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. in slot 252 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
