The war room fell hard for Matthew Jones, and it showed at pick 220: 45 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. That Paul pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Graham Barton · OT · rank 26
In the 25th overall pick they get a building block for the line. A real need, handled.
R1.26 · Pick 26 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 27
In Round 1, Pick 26 they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
R3.2 · Pick 66 · Jeremiah Trotter Jr. · LB · rank 68
No drama and no debate, Jeremiah Trotter Jr. went about where he belonged in the 66th pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Patrick Paul · OT · rank 69
The board fumbled Patrick Paul all the way to No. 88, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
R4.4 · Pick 104 · Ray Davis · RB · rank 109
A straight-up fair deal on Ray Davis at pick 104, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Ben Sinnott · TE · rank 129
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ben Sinnott. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Malik Mustapha · S · rank 170
By-the-book stuff, Malik Mustapha at the 169th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R5.34 · Pick 170 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 201
They left a pile of value on the table to take Joe Milton III this early at Round 5, Pick 34. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Jaylan Ford · LB · rank 206
Jaylan Ford slipping to pick No. 219 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
R6.45 · Pick 220 · Matthew Jones · OG · rank 265
They reached into another round for Matthew Jones, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
R7.19 · Pick 239 · Trey Taylor · S · rank 266
A big swing on Trey Taylor at No. 239, well ahead of any board in the building. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Jalen Sundell · OT · rank 247
A slide stopped in the 255th pick, with Jalen Sundell worth more than the price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
