The Rams put a flag in the ground for Jude Bowry, 36 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.
Dixon falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain.
Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.
Pick-by-Pick
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner at fair value.
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren slid further than he should have, and Round 2, Pick 29 is lovely value for the safety. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jude Bowry in the 93rd overall pick, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Cole Payton slipping to the 207th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
They let Kaden Wetjen come to them and pounced at No. 232. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Robert Henry Jr. at slot 251 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Circle this one: Thaddeus Dixon at Round 7, Pick 36 is a fall that decides a draft. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
