The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Steelers watched Jake Golday slide 40 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.21 · Pick 21 · Makai Lemon · WR · rank 11
Value with a capital V on Makai Lemon in Round 1, Pick 21, a genuine coup. The roster fit checks out.
R2.21 · Pick 53 · Emmanuel Pregnon · OG · rank 39
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Emmanuel Pregnon at the 53rd overall pick. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R2.22 · Pick 54 · Anthony Hill Jr. · LB · rank 38
Anthony Hill Jr. slid further than he should have, and the 54th pick is lovely value for the linebacker. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R3.21 · Pick 85 · Domonique Orange · DT · rank 76
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Domonique Orange in slot 85. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R3.35 · Pick 99 · Jake Golday · OLB · rank 59
Jake Golday in No. 99 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.36 · Pick 100 · Elijah Sarratt · WR · rank 77
Circle this one: Elijah Sarratt at pick No. 100 is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R6.35 · Pick 216 · Riley Nowakowski · TE · rank 216
By-the-book stuff, Riley Nowakowski at pick 216 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
R7.8 · Pick 224 · Robert Spears-Jennings · S · rank 231
No drama and no debate, Robert Spears-Jennings went about where he belonged in the Round 7 slot. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
