FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Packers. There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Packers started one anyway for Rondell Bothroyd, 59 picks ahead of schedule.
Getting Milton III where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up.
Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick26
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
In the Round 1 slot they get a blindside protector, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick53
Rnd2
JC Latham
You do not let an offensive lineman like JC Latham reach No. 53 and blink. They did not. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick57
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
The board fumbled Xavier Legette all the way to Round 2, Pick 25, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick85
Rnd3
Trey Benson
Trey Benson in the 85th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick88
Rnd3
Caelen Carson
Caelen Carson at the 88th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick90
Rnd3
Tykee Smith
No edge and no loss on Tykee Smith in pick 90; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick92
Rnd3
Blake Corum
Blake Corum in No. 92 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick121
Rnd4
Roman Wilson
Steal is underselling it; Roman Wilson at the 121st pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick125
Rnd4
Max Melton
Max Melton slid further than he should have, and the Round 4 slot is lovely value for the cornerback. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick135
Rnd4
Tommy Eichenberg
Value with a capital V on Tommy Eichenberg in slot 135, a genuine coup. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick163
Rnd5
Sincere Haynesworth
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Sincere Haynesworth at pick No. 163 is the proof. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick188
Rnd6
Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford slipping to Round 6, Pick 13 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick203
Rnd6
Joe Milton III
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Joe Milton III in the 203rd overall pick, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick217
Rnd6
Rondell Bothroyd
Rondell Bothroyd in pick 217 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick219
Rnd6
Jordan Magee
They barely believed it either: Jordan Magee still on the board at the 219th pick. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick246
Rnd7
Mark Perry
A tidy bit of business in No. 246, where Mark Perry graded well above the range. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
