Larceny in pick No. 228 lands the Packers a A, Whittington and all. Somebody in pick 228 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Packers sat still while Jordan Whittington, the No. 192 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. It is not that Melton is a bad player; it is that the Packers had louder needs to answer first.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. They are betting Neal proves the room right and everyone else wrong.
Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Chop Robinson and all.
Pick Analysis
Pick22
Rnd1
Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson at the 22nd overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick39
Rnd2
Josh Newton
A tidy little value on Josh Newton in pick No. 39, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick48
Rnd2
Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock at the 48th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick71
Rnd3
Ladd McConkey
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Ladd McConkey at No. 71 is the proof. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick73
Rnd3
Amarius Mims
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Amarius Mims. The roster fit checks out.
Pick82
Rnd3
Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell slid further than he should have, and slot 82 is lovely value for the edge rusher. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick107
Rnd4
Max Melton
A surprising call. With interior defensive lineman still to address, they spent pick 107 on Max Melton, a defensive back they were not short of.
Pick122
Rnd4
Jaheim Bell
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jaheim Bell in Round 4, Pick 22. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick127
Rnd4
Zach Frazier
No edge and no loss on Zach Frazier in pick 127; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick135
Rnd4
Joe Milton III
They did well to land Joe Milton III in pick No. 135, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick159
Rnd5
Devin Neal
Devin Neal in the Round 5 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick185
Rnd6
Tre Harris
They paid sticker price for Tre Harris in Round 6, Pick 10, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick217
Rnd6
Caden Prieskorn
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Caden Prieskorn in slot 217. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick219
Rnd6
Taulia Tagovailoa
A reach for Taulia Tagovailoa in the 219th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick228
Rnd7
Jordan Whittington
Steal is underselling it; Jordan Whittington at No. 228 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
