FutureB-
The Packers turned the phones into found money: B. Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Packers spent the Round 7 slot on Frank Crum, a name most had 38 spots down the list. More right than wrong, and a B to match.
Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. It is not that Taylor-Demerson is a bad player; it is that the Packers had louder needs to answer first. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick26
Rnd1
Cooper DeJean
In No. 26 they get a lockdown presence outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at the 44th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick58
Rnd2
Bralen Trice
They paid sticker price for Bralen Trice in the 58th pick, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick88
Rnd3
Jaden Hicks
Fair-plus on Jaden Hicks, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick89
Rnd3
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in pick 89 leaves quarterback, running back and other spots for later.
Pick91
Rnd3
Dominick Puni
Nothing to complain about; Dominick Puni went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick112
Rnd4
Blake Fisher
Blake Fisher in pick No. 112 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick126
Rnd4
Jarrian Jones
A reach on Jarrian Jones in No. 126; the board had better options right there. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick169
Rnd5
Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd at the Round 5 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick202
Rnd6
Jordan Magee
A big swing on Jordan Magee at slot 202, well ahead of any board in the building. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick219
Rnd6
Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace at the 219th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick245
Rnd7
Jalen Sundell
A straight-up fair deal on Jalen Sundell at the 245th pick, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick255
Rnd7
Ryan Watts
No edge and no loss on Ryan Watts in Round 7, Pick 35; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick256
Rnd7
Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor in pick 256 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick257
Rnd7
Frank Crum
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Frank Crum well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
