This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: RJ Harvey, the No. 159 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 249.
Reaching for Jackson left real value on the table behind him. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
The skill positions did well by the weekend.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick-by-Pick
In No. 25 they get a matchup problem out wide, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
The board fumbled Tyler Warren all the way to Round 2, Pick 12, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Nothing to complain about; TreVeyon Henderson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
They read the board right and Azareye'h Thomas was the payoff at the Round 3 slot. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
A tidy little value on Donovan Jackson in pick No. 89, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
They barely believed it either: Malachi Moore still on the board at pick 150. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
They will replay Logan Brown at slot 170 for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Tyler Shough in the 172nd overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
They paid a round early for Jay Higgins in slot 174, more than the board wanted. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Value said wait; Cam Jackson in the 190th overall pick says they were not listening. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Ty Hamilton at pick 211 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
You do not let a running back like RJ Harvey reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
