You could see the war room lean forward. Jordan Hancock at Round 7, Pick 32 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick No. 32 they get a press-man option on the boundary, outstanding value to boot. Need was not the driver here.
Walter Nolen in No. 64 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
You do not let a running back like Ashton Jeanty reach the 69th overall pick and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
Circle this one: Tyler Booker at slot 96 is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Tre Harris at the Round 4 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Jordan Burch at Round 5, Pick 32 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Steal is underselling it; Deontae Lawson at pick 193 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
They will replay Jordan Hancock at the 224th pick for years; that is how good the value is. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
