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

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Roger Rosengarten, the No. 175 name on the board, stolen at slot 217.

They will need Gentry to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. With quarterback, wide receiver and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on linebacker is the choice that costs them. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In No. 25 they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Edgerrin Cooper. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick63 Rnd2 Junior Colson
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Junior Colson at linebacker with quarterback, wide receiver and other spots open.
Pick88 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at the Round 3 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson in pick No. 91 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick94 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
No drama and no debate, Tykee Smith went about where he belonged in the 94th overall pick. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick98 Rnd3 Ray Davis
Ray Davis at slot 98 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick125 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
You do not let an offensive lineman like Blake Fisher reach the 125th pick and blink. They did not. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick131 Rnd4 Malik Mustapha
A curious use of No. 131. Quarterback, wide receiver and other spots needed the pick; a safety in Malik Mustapha did not.
Pick135 Rnd4 Justin Rogers
A big swing on Justin Rogers at the Round 4 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
Jawhar Jordan in slot 203 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick217 Rnd6 Roger Rosengarten
Somehow Roger Rosengarten was still sitting there in pick 217, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick219 Rnd6 Eric Gentry
They left a pile of value on the table to take Eric Gentry this early at Round 6, Pick 44. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick246 Rnd7 Xavier Thomas
The board had cheaper options than Xavier Thomas at pick No. 246, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
