You could see the war room lean forward. Elijah Jones at slot 228 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.3 · Pick 35 · Tyler Nubin · S · rank 39
Tyler Nubin in the 35th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R2.23 · Pick 55 · Ruke Orhorhoro · DT · rank 55
No drama and no debate, Ruke Orhorhoro went about where he belonged in pick 55. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.30 · Pick 93 · Zak Zinter · OG · rank 104
Zak Zinter in No. 93 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R4.27 · Pick 127 · McKinnley Jackson · DL · rank 123
McKinnley Jackson at the Round 4 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Kalen King · CB · rank 140
They took Kalen King at par in the 135th pick, which is nothing to complain about. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R5.22 · Pick 158 · Johnny Wilson · WR · rank 128
Taking Johnny Wilson in pick No. 158 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.9 · Pick 184 · Malik Mustapha · S · rank 153
Malik Mustapha at slot 184 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
R6.23 · Pick 198 · Caedan Wallace · OT · rank 180
They will replay Caedan Wallace at Round 6, Pick 23 for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R7.4 · Pick 224 · Tahj Washington · WR · rank 192
The board fumbled Tahj Washington all the way to No. 224, and they scooped it up. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R7.8 · Pick 228 · Elijah Jones · CB · rank 193
Elijah Jones in the 228th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
R7.21 · Pick 241 · Brevyn Spann-Ford · TE · rank 239
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Brevyn Spann-Ford. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
