The Packers cashed the board's mistake on McGlothern: B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Dwight McGlothern got past him. The Packers do not have to explain a thing at Round 6, Pick 27.

If Tagovailoa pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the 25th pick they get a No. 1 receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims slid further than he should have, and pick No. 41 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick58 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Edgerrin Cooper at pick 58. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick88 Rnd3 Trey Benson
They took Trey Benson at par in Round 3, Pick 25, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
A clean, defensible pick in the 91st overall pick with a little surplus value in Jaden Hicks. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick126 Rnd4 Javon Foster
A tidy little value on Javon Foster in the Round 4 slot, a step better than break-even. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick169 Rnd5 Javion Cohen
Javion Cohen at No. 169 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick202 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in slot 202 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick219 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Taking Curtis Jacobs in the 219th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick245 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
By-the-book stuff, Josh Proctor at No. 245 squarely in line with his ranking. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick255 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
They reached a country mile for Taulia Tagovailoa at the 255th pick, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
