FutureB
The Packers turned the phones into found money: B. The war room fell hard for Hayden Hatten, and it showed at slot 247: 66 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. The bottom line is a respectable B.
They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Spending an early pick on safety with tight end open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.
Pick Analysis
Pick32
Rnd1
T'Vondre Sweat
In pick 32 they get a load in the middle, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick52
Rnd2
Calen Bullock
They did well to land Calen Bullock in No. 52, just ahead of his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick58
Rnd2
Josh Newton
Josh Newton at pick No. 58 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick88
Rnd3
Jaden Hicks
A curious use of slot 88. Tight end needed the pick; a safety in Jaden Hicks did not.
Pick91
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
They paid sticker price for Zak Zinter in the 91st pick, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick120
Rnd4
Isaiah Adams
Isaiah Adams at the Round 4 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick125
Rnd4
Will Shipley
A reach for Will Shipley in No. 125; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick126
Rnd4
Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at the 126th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick135
Rnd4
Austin Booker
Austin Booker at the Round 4 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick203
Rnd6
Taulia Tagovailoa
They left a pile of value on the table to take Taulia Tagovailoa this early at the 203rd pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick217
Rnd6
Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan at Round 6, Pick 42 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick219
Rnd6
Maurice Smith
They reached a country mile for Maurice Smith at pick No. 219, and the board is aghast. It fills a real need, too.
Pick220
Rnd6
Joshua Cephus
They reached into another round for Joshua Cephus, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick246
Rnd7
Nathaniel Watson
Nothing to complain about; Nathaniel Watson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick247
Rnd7
Hayden Hatten
Hayden Hatten in No. 247 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
