You could see the war room lean forward. Mike Sainristil at Round 5, Pick 8 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

Wallace has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.29 · Pick 29 · Jackson Powers-Johnson · C · rank 31
In the 29th pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.24 · Pick 56 · Ladd McConkey · WR · rank 34
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Ladd McConkey in pick No. 56, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.24 · Pick 87 · Dominick Puni · OT · rank 88
They paid sticker price for Dominick Puni in pick 87, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R4.28 · Pick 128 · Blake Corum · RB · rank 84
They will replay Blake Corum at the Round 4 slot for years; that is how good the value is. The roster fit checks out.
R5.8 · Pick 144 · Mike Sainristil · CB · rank 75
A cornerback of that caliber at the 144th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.28 · Pick 164 · Trevin Wallace · LB · rank 234
Value said wait; Trevin Wallace in Round 5, Pick 28 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R5.38 · Pick 174 · Grayson Murphy · DL-EDGE · rank 177
No edge and no loss on Grayson Murphy in the 174th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R6.41 · Pick 216 · Johnny Dixon · CB · rank 191
You do not let a cornerback like Johnny Dixon reach slot 216 and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.13 · Pick 233 · Trente Jones · OT · rank 195
Trente Jones at No. 233 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R7.24 · Pick 244 · Sam Hartman · QB · rank 259
They liked Sam Hartman enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 244. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
