Good, not great, for the Packers: B-.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Packers spent the 219th pick on Eyabi Okie-Anoma, a name most had 65 spots down the list.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Smith-Wade. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
They took Javon Bullard at par in the 41st overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick48 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They paid sticker price for Edgerrin Cooper in pick No. 48, and that is fine. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick88 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen in pick 88 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick126 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Justin Eboigbe. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick169 Rnd5 Chau Smith-Wade
Chau Smith-Wade in No. 169 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick202 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
They went early on Garret Greenfield in pick No. 202, and the value did not follow. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick219 Rnd6 Eyabi Okie-Anoma
Eyabi Okie-Anoma in slot 219 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick245 Rnd7 Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau at the Round 7 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick255 Rnd7 Dominique Hampton
Dominique Hampton at No. 255 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
