Some picks age like wine; Charles Turner III at slot 252 will need to, sitting 45 spots clear of his grade. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. They banked enough surplus on Harden to cover a lot of smaller sins. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.29 · Pick 29 · Troy Fautanu · OT · rank 22
In the Round 1 slot they get a blindside protector. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.1 · Pick 33 · Adonai Mitchell · WR · rank 31
Adonai Mitchell at slot 33 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Ricky Pearsall · WR · rank 59
The board had Ricky Pearsall higher than the 67th overall pick, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Dominick Puni · OT · rank 88
Dominick Puni in No. 76 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.37 · Pick 100 · Gabriel Murphy · DL-EDGE · rank 92
Gabriel Murphy at the 100th pick is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R4.2 · Pick 102 · Theo Johnson · TE · rank 122
A big swing on Theo Johnson at Round 4, Pick 2, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R4.18 · Pick 118 · Johnny Wilson · WR · rank 125
Johnny Wilson at pick 118 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.32 · Pick 132 · Mohamed Kamara · DL-EDGE · rank 132
No edge and no loss on Mohamed Kamara in slot 132; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.2 · Pick 138 · Justin Eboigbe · DL-EDGE · rank 148
A reach for Justin Eboigbe in Round 5, Pick 2; a little patience would have been rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R5.23 · Pick 159 · Kitan Oladapo · S · rank 154
A clean, defensible pick in the 159th overall pick with a little surplus value in Kitan Oladapo. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R5.30 · Pick 166 · Cody Schrader · RB · rank 175
Cody Schrader in the Round 5 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The roster fit checks out.
R7.6 · Pick 226 · Myles Harden · CB · rank 209
A tidy bit of business in No. 226, where Myles Harden graded well above the range. A minor itch, scratched.
R7.32 · Pick 252 · Charles Turner III · C · rank 297
Charles Turner III in pick No. 252 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
