2024 NFL Draft

· 4 reaches
This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Dwight McGlothern, the No. 175 name on the board, stolen at the 216th pick.
They will need Hartman to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick-by-Pick
In the 25th overall pick they get a No. 1 receiver, though they paid up to get him.
They let Graham Barton come to them and pounced at the Round 2 slot. It fills a real need, too.
Devontez Walker at pick No. 58 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Dominick Puni in Round 3, Pick 25 is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Christian Mahogany in No. 91 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A need, and now a little less of one.
They talked themselves into Roger Rosengarten at the 127th pick, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Fair-plus on Trevor Keegan, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Luke McCaffrey at pick 204 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; Dwight McGlothern at pick No. 216 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
KT Leveston in the 243rd pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Value said wait; Sam Hartman in slot 251 says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
