Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Trace Ford at the 239th overall pick is 88 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.

Lloyd falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The offensive lineman 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. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but offensive lineman.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.22 · Pick 22 · Nate Wiggins · CB · rank 15
In pick 22 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.18 · Pick 50 · Chop Robinson · DE-EDGE · rank 35
Chop Robinson at Round 2, Pick 18 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R2.30 · Pick 62 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 58
Edgerrin Cooper at pick No. 62 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R3.30 · Pick 93 · Roman Wilson · WR · rank 83
Roman Wilson is a better player than slot 93 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.36 · Pick 99 · Michael Hall Jr. · DT · rank 89
They read the board right and Michael Hall Jr. was the payoff at No. 99. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.1 · Pick 137 · Cole Bishop · S · rank 129
A slide stopped in the Round 5 slot, with Cole Bishop worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.27 · Pick 163 · MarShawn Lloyd · RB · rank 130
You do not let a running back like MarShawn Lloyd reach Round 5, Pick 27 and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R5.28 · Pick 164 · Cam Hart · CB · rank 137
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Cam Hart in No. 164, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.30 · Pick 166 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 155
Value with a capital V on Braelon Allen in pick 166, a genuine coup. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R5.36 · Pick 172 · Nehemiah Pritchett · CB · rank 142
They barely believed it either: Nehemiah Pritchett still on the board at the Round 5 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R6.3 · Pick 178 · AJ Barner · TE · rank 193
A conviction pick on AJ Barner at slot 178 that the board grades a round light. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R7.10 · Pick 230 · De'Corian Clark · WR · rank 200
They will replay De'Corian Clark at the 230th pick for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R7.19 · Pick 239 · Trace Ford · DE-EDGE · rank 327
Trace Ford at pick No. 239 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.23 · Pick 243 · Kenny Logan Jr. · S · rank 210
A safety of that caliber at the 243rd overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
