The Packers cashed the board's mistake on Lew: B. Call it larceny. Connor Lew sat on the board until the 84th pick, and the Packers did not need to be asked twice. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.
The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Every board in the league had Haynes lower, and that gap is the story.
They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.
Pick Analysis
Pick46
Rnd2
Chris Johnson
They read the board right and Chris Johnson was the payoff at pick No. 46. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick84
Rnd3
Connor Lew
They robbed the room for Connor Lew here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick120
Rnd4
Billy Schrauth
A reach for Billy Schrauth in the Round 4 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
Pick158
Rnd5
Kaleb Proctor
A premium they did not need to pay, Kaleb Proctor a notch or two before his time. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick236
Rnd7
TJ Hall
A slide stopped in Round 7, Pick 20, with TJ Hall worth more than the price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick254
Rnd7
Trey Zuhn III
They did well to land Trey Zuhn III in the 254th pick, just ahead of his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick257
Rnd7
Jamal Haynes
Jamal Haynes in the 257th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
