Abney II should have been long gone. The Packers pounced, and earned a C+. The Packers spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Keith Abney II, the No. 45 name on the board, in the Round 5 slot. A mixed bag that lands at C+.
They are betting Velling proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice.
In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.
Pick Analysis
Pick52
Rnd2
Max Iheanachor
A wild overpay on Max Iheanachor in Round 2, Pick 20, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick158
Rnd5
Keith Abney II
Keith Abney II in the 158th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick236
Rnd7
Kaleb Elarms-Orr
Kaleb Elarms-Orr in pick 236 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick254
Rnd7
Jack Velling
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jack Velling well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick257
Rnd7
Robert Henry Jr.
Robert Henry Jr. in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
