FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Packers: B. There is conviction, and then there is this. The Packers took DeMonte Capehart a full 58 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. More right than wrong, and a B to match.
Foster falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Kool-Aid McKinstry
In slot 25 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51
Rnd2
Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in No. 51 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick59
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
Steal is underselling it; Xavier Legette at pick No. 59 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick83
Rnd3
Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie in Round 3, Pick 19 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick88
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
They did well to land Mike Sainristil in the Round 3 slot, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick103
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
No drama and no debate, Khyree Jackson went about where he belonged in pick 103. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick125
Rnd4
Beau Brade
A slide stopped in slot 125, with Beau Brade worth more than the price. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick127
Rnd4
Austin Booker
They left a pile of value on the table to take Austin Booker this early at pick No. 127. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick135
Rnd4
Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight at pick 135 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick164
Rnd5
Javon Foster
You do not let an offensive lineman like Javon Foster reach the 164th overall pick and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick167
Rnd5
Braiden McGregor
They reached a country mile for Braiden McGregor at No. 167, and the board is aghast. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick182
Rnd6
Jaylan Ford
Fair-plus on Jaylan Ford, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick191
Rnd6
Christian Jones
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Christian Jones. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick203
Rnd6
Isaiah Davis
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Isaiah Davis in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick217
Rnd6
DeMonte Capehart
They reached into another round for DeMonte Capehart, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick219
Rnd6
JD Bertrand
JD Bertrand at pick No. 219 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick221
Rnd7
Michael Wiley
Michael Wiley in slot 221 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick246
Rnd7
Aaron Lewis
They talked themselves into Aaron Lewis at Round 7, Pick 26, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick251
Rnd7
Nathaniel Watson
A tidy bit of business in the 251st pick, where Nathaniel Watson graded well above the range. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
