The war room fell hard for Dylan Morris, and it showed at No. 163: 287 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. Put together, it is a D.
For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and edge rusher is still a hole.
Pick-by-Pick
A big swing on Joshua Gray at Round 1, Pick 27, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
A wild overpay on Logan Parr in pick No. 58, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
They reached a country mile for PJ Williams at the 91st pick, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Quincy Riley in slot 127 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Dylan Morris in the 163rd overall pick, miles early. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Roman Hemby this early at No. 202. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
A real head-scratcher, Michael Trigg in the Round 7 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
