Some picks age like wine; Simeon Barrow Jr. at the 151st pick will need to, sitting 27 spots clear of his grade.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Milroe at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick-by-Pick
They did well to land Will Campbell in slot 16, just ahead of his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
By-the-book stuff, Tre Harris at pick No. 47 squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
They jumped the gun on Donovan Jackson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
They read the board right and Jalen Milroe was the payoff at the 113th pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Simeon Barrow Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
