Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Austin Booker at the Round 3 slot is 76 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Kinchens. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.
In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.
Pick-by-Pick
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Kamren Kinchens in the 56th pick, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Austin Booker in slot 88 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
The board fumbled Kris Abrams-Draine all the way to Round 5, Pick 5, and they scooped it up. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Michael Barrett in the 206th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Jawhar Jordan slipping to No. 236 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
