It is the swing that defines the weekend: Beau Brade in the 92nd pick, a good 24 spots before the room expected him. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

Landing Thomas Jr. that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.19 · Pick 19 · Nate Wiggins · CB · rank 16
In the 19th pick they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Brian Thomas Jr. · WR · rank 21
Somehow Brian Thomas Jr. was still sitting there in the Round 2 slot, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R2.19 · Pick 51 · Kris Jenkins · DL-EDGE · rank 51
Kris Jenkins at No. 51 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.19 · Pick 83 · Jeremiah Trotter Jr. · LB · rank 64
They barely believed it either: Jeremiah Trotter Jr. still on the board at the 83rd overall pick. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R3.29 · Pick 92 · Beau Brade · S · rank 116
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Beau Brade well ahead of where he belonged. A minor itch, scratched.
R4.19 · Pick 119 · Ray Davis · RB · rank 124
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ray Davis. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Brandon Coleman · OL · rank 150
Brandon Coleman at slot 135 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.22 · Pick 197 · Christian Jones · OT · rank 183
A quiet steal in Round 6, Pick 22: Christian Jones for less than the market said. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Jase McClellan · RB · rank 197
Jase McClellan in the Round 6 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Dwight McGlothern · CB · rank 221
A straight-up fair deal on Dwight McGlothern at the 219th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.20 · Pick 240 · Chad Lindberg · C · rank 257
They went early on Chad Lindberg in pick No. 240, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
