Best value of the weekend goes to the Packers for Williams: B+. The Packers ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.
Landing Williams that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They will answer for taking safety early while quarterback, tight end and other spots went begging.
Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick33
Rnd2
Chop Robinson
No drama and no debate, Chop Robinson went about where he belonged in pick No. 33. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick51
Rnd2
Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock at the 51st overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick57
Rnd2
Jonah Elliss
Jonah Elliss in the Round 2 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick78
Rnd3
Trey Benson
Trey Benson in slot 78 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick83
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
They did well to land Christian Haynes in No. 83, just ahead of his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick88
Rnd3
Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran at Round 3, Pick 25 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick92
Rnd3
Tykee Smith
A curious use of the Round 3 slot. Quarterback, tight end and other spots needed the pick; a safety in Tykee Smith did not.
Pick125
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
A tidy little value on Khyree Jackson in pick 125, a step better than break-even. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick135
Rnd4
Shemar Turner
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Shemar Turner. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick203
Rnd6
Bru McCoy
A tidy bit of business in No. 203, where Bru McCoy graded well above the range. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick219
Rnd6
Roger Rosengarten
Taking Roger Rosengarten in pick No. 219 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It fills a real need, too.
Pick222
Rnd7
Jordan Magee
Nothing to complain about; Jordan Magee went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick233
Rnd7
Dwight McGlothern
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Dwight McGlothern in the 233rd overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick241
Rnd7
Fentrell Cypress II
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Fentrell Cypress II at Round 7, Pick 21. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick246
Rnd7
Isaiah Williams
Circle this one: Isaiah Williams at Round 7, Pick 26 is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
