When the story of this class is written, it opens with Mohamed Kamara at the Round 4 slot, a reach of 22 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.
For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. That Barton pick is the receipt they will wave around later.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick-by-Pick
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide. Exactly the need they had to hit.
They let Graham Barton come to them and pounced at Round 2, Pick 5. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
By-the-book stuff, Max Melton at the 69th pick squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
A wild overpay on McKinnley Jackson in No. 105, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Value said wait; Mohamed Kamara in the 110th overall pick says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Dylan Laube in pick No. 140 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
