FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Packers a B. The Packers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Patrick Payton at the Round 5 slot regardless, 42 picks early. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.
They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. That Hunter pick is the receipt they will wave around later.
They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick53
Rnd2
Jake Slaughter
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jake Slaughter in Round 2, Pick 21. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick84
Rnd3
Lee Hunter
The board had Lee Hunter higher than No. 84, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick85
Rnd3
Malik Muhammad
Value with a capital V on Malik Muhammad in the 85th overall pick, a genuine coup. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick120
Rnd4
Max Iheanachor
Max Iheanachor at pick 120 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick158
Rnd5
Patrick Payton
They left a pile of value on the table to take Patrick Payton this early at the 158th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick199
Rnd6
Antonio Kite
A tidy bit of business in the Round 6 slot, where Antonio Kite graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick236
Rnd7
London Humphreys
A straight-up fair deal on London Humphreys at the 236th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick254
Rnd7
Will Kacmarek
Will Kacmarek is a better player than Round 7, Pick 38 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick257
Rnd7
Evan Tengesdahl
Evan Tengesdahl at pick No. 257 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
