The war room fell hard for Gentry Williams, and it showed at the 190th pick: 84 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Simon. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.15 · Pick 15 · Ashton Jeanty · RB · rank 2
In pick 15 they get a featured back, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
R2.14 · Pick 46 · Kenneth Grant · DT · rank 26
Kenneth Grant at Round 2, Pick 14 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.14 · Pick 78 · Smael Mondon Jr. · LB · rank 105
They left a pile of value on the table to take Smael Mondon Jr. this early at the Round 3 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R5.10 · Pick 148 · Dont'e Thornton Jr. · WR · rank 171
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Dont'e Thornton Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.14 · Pick 152 · Jay Higgins · LB · rank 123
You do not let a linebacker like Jay Higgins reach slot 152 and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R5.30 · Pick 168 · Sonny Styles · S · rank 124
A safety of that caliber at the 168th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R5.32 · Pick 170 · Cody Simon · LB · rank 125
Cody Simon in Round 5, Pick 32 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.33 · Pick 171 · Miles Frazier · OG · rank 201
Miles Frazier at slot 171 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.15 · Pick 190 · Gentry Williams · CB · rank 274
They reached into another round for Gentry Williams, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R6.34 · Pick 209 · Thor Griffith · DL · rank 267
Thor Griffith at pick 209 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R7.34 · Pick 248 · Omari Thomas · DL · rank 317
Omari Thomas at the 248th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
