Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Zion Logue at slot 243 is 46 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. The bottom line is a respectable B-.
The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick-by-Pick
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get an island corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
A straight-up fair deal on Edgerrin Cooper at pick No. 41, value and slot in agreement. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Kamren Kinchens in the 58th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor itch, scratched.
No drama and no debate, Dominick Puni went about where he belonged in the Round 3 slot. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
They paid sticker price for Trey Benson in No. 91, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
A clean, defensible pick in the 127th pick with a little surplus value in Josh Newton. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Good price on Luke McCaffrey in slot 168, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
They went early on Josh Proctor in the 204th overall pick, and the value did not follow. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Andrew Raym in pick No. 216 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A need, and now a little less of one.
Zion Logue at the Round 7 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jalen Coker. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
