The war room fell hard for Jowon Briggs, and it showed at the Round 7 slot: 32 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

They banked enough surplus on Suamataia to cover a lot of smaller sins. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.26 · Pick 58 · Kris Jenkins · DL-EDGE · rank 49
They read the board right and Kris Jenkins was the payoff at the 58th overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.7 · Pick 71 · Cooper Beebe · OG · rank 65
A clean, defensible pick in the 71st pick with a little surplus value in Cooper Beebe. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 70
Taking Kingsley Suamataia in Round 3, Pick 25 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R4.4 · Pick 104 · Khyree Jackson · CB · rank 95
Khyree Jackson in the Round 4 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R4.5 · Pick 105 · Cole Bishop · S · rank 92
They let Cole Bishop come to them and pounced at pick No. 105. A minor itch, scratched.
R4.10 · Pick 110 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 119
They paid up for Cedric Gray at No. 110 when waiting would have done the job. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R4.27 · Pick 127 · Isaac Guerendo · RB · rank 138
Isaac Guerendo in the 127th pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R5.34 · Pick 170 · Jordan Travis · QB · rank 180
The board had cheaper options than Jordan Travis at the Round 5 slot, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 216
A conviction pick on Joe Milton III at the 202nd overall pick that the board grades a round light. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R6.32 · Pick 207 · Jaylan Ford · LB · rank 215
They paid a round early for Jaylan Ford in pick No. 207, more than the board wanted. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Trey Taylor · S · rank 230
A reach on Trey Taylor in slot 219; the board had better options right there. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
R7.19 · Pick 239 · Jowon Briggs · DT · rank 271
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jowon Briggs in No. 239, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.27 · Pick 247 · Frank Crum · OT · rank 254
They took Frank Crum at par in pick 247, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Jaylon Carlies · S · rank 270
They jumped the gun on Jaylon Carlies, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
