When the story of this class is written, it opens with Braelon Allen at pick No. 126, a reach of 29 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

McClellan falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 13
In No. 25 they get a press-man option on the boundary, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Kris Jenkins · DL-EDGE · rank 44
They paid sticker price for Kris Jenkins in pick No. 41, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Calen Bullock · S · rank 46
Calen Bullock in Round 2, Pick 25 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Blake Fisher · OT · rank 100
Blake Fisher in the 88th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Marist Liufau · LB · rank 86
Marist Liufau in the Round 3 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 155
A wild overpay on Braelon Allen in slot 126, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.32 · Pick 168 · Jordan Jefferson · DT · rank 181
Jordan Jefferson at Round 5, Pick 32 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · JD Bertrand · LB · rank 195
JD Bertrand at slot 203 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
R6.41 · Pick 216 · Isaiah Williams · WR · rank 198
They will replay Isaiah Williams at the 216th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R7.23 · Pick 243 · Jase McClellan · RB · rank 217
Circle this one: Jase McClellan at the 243rd pick is a fall that decides a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R7.31 · Pick 251 · Jeremy James · OT · rank 253
Jeremy James in the Round 7 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
