FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Packers a B. Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Packers never addressed quarterback, and it is the kind of gap that lingers.
The Thompson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Legette.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Jordan Morgan
In the Round 1 slot they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick41
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette slid further than he should have, and the 41st pick is lovely value for the wide receiver. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick60
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
A straight-up fair deal on T'Vondre Sweat at Round 2, Pick 28, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick88
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at the 88th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick110
Rnd4
Nelson Ceaser
No drama and no debate, Nelson Ceaser went about where he belonged in slot 110. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick125
Rnd4
Tommy Eichenberg
By-the-book stuff, Tommy Eichenberg at No. 125 squarely in line with his ranking. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick128
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine at pick No. 128 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick133
Rnd4
Cole Bishop
Good price on Cole Bishop in pick 133, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick135
Rnd4
MarShawn Lloyd
They did well to land MarShawn Lloyd in the Round 4 slot, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick146
Rnd5
Cam Hart
Nice patience on Cam Hart, who had no business lasting to No. 146. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick188
Rnd6
Jaylen Harrell
They paid a round early for Jaylen Harrell in slot 188, more than the board wanted. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick203
Rnd6
Christian Jones
A tidy little value on Christian Jones in the 203rd overall pick, a step better than break-even. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick217
Rnd6
Miyan Williams
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Miyan Williams at the 217th pick is the proof. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick219
Rnd6
Stefon Thompson
Stefon Thompson at pick No. 219 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A fine player at a spot low on the priority list.
Pick246
Rnd7
Eric Gentry
Eric Gentry in Round 7, Pick 26 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick249
Rnd7
Ja'Had Carter
Ja'Had Carter at pick 249 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
