They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Frank Gore Jr., 35 picks early at slot 219. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

Landing Odunze that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.11 · Pick 11 · JC Latham · OT · rank 15
In pick 11 they get a blindside protector at fair value.
R2.7 · Pick 39 · Rome Odunze · WR · rank 12
They barely believed it either: Rome Odunze still on the board at pick No. 39. A need, and now a little less of one.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · T.J. Tampa · CB · rank 43
They took T.J. Tampa at par in the 44th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.11 · Pick 75 · Byron Murphy II · DL · rank 67
Byron Murphy II at No. 75 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.18 · Pick 82 · TreVeyon Henderson · RB · rank 84
TreVeyon Henderson at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R4.11 · Pick 111 · Audric Estime · RB · rank 111
By-the-book stuff, Audric Estime at slot 111 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.12 · Pick 112 · Tate Ratledge · OG · rank 115
Tate Ratledge in slot 112 is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 125
Nice patience on Cedric Gray, who had no business lasting to pick No. 135. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R6.14 · Pick 189 · Tre Harris · WR · rank 167
Tre Harris at the 189th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Jordan Jefferson · DT · rank 242
They reached a country mile for Jordan Jefferson at pick 217, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Frank Gore Jr. · RB · rank 254
Frank Gore Jr. in the 219th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R7.12 · Pick 232 · Sam Hartman · QB · rank 260
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Sam Hartman well ahead of where he belonged. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
