The war room fell hard for Jawhar Jordan, and it showed at the 202nd overall pick: 61 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

The Gray pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, quarterback and other spots. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Troy Fautanu · OT · rank 26
In pick 25 they get a long-term starter on the line. A clean fit for the roster.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 42
Edgerrin Cooper in No. 41 is fair value, right on his grade. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Max Melton · CB · rank 63
By-the-book stuff, Max Melton at Round 2, Pick 26 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Trey Benson · RB · rank 96
The board had cheaper options than Trey Benson at pick No. 88, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Cole Bishop · S · rank 110
Cole Bishop in the Round 3 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 126
A surprising call. With edge rusher, quarterback and other spots still to address, they spent the 126th overall pick on Cedric Gray, a linebacker they were not short of.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Luke McCaffrey · WR · rank 165
A reasonable price with a little left over, Luke McCaffrey in Round 5, Pick 33. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Jawhar Jordan · RB · rank 263
They talked themselves into Jawhar Jordan at pick No. 202, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Tip Reiman · TE · rank 225
They took Tip Reiman at par in the 219th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · LaDarius Henderson · OT · rank 246
A straight-up fair deal on LaDarius Henderson at slot 245, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Marcellas Dial · CB · rank 262
No edge and no loss on Marcellas Dial in the 255th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
