The war room fell hard for Adam Randall, and it showed at the 220th overall pick: 62 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

Landing Miller that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped offensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.9 · Pick 9 · Arvell Reese · LB · rank 7
In slot 9 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece. A real need, handled.
R1.29 · Pick 29 · Dillon Thieneman · S · rank 27
In Round 1, Pick 29 they get a ballhawk on the back end at fair value. More want than need.
R2.8 · Pick 40 · D'Angelo Ponds · CB · rank 48
They liked D'Angelo Ponds enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 2 slot. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R3.10 · Pick 74 · Christen Miller · DL · rank 59
The board had Christen Miller higher than pick 74, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. The roster fit checks out.
R4.28 · Pick 128 · Oscar Delp · TE · rank 133
No edge and no loss on Oscar Delp in the 128th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.17 · Pick 157 · Jeff Caldwell · WR · rank 192
They reached a country mile for Jeff Caldwell at No. 157, and the board is aghast. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.28 · Pick 168 · Rayshaun Benny · DL · rank 158
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Rayshaun Benny at pick 168 is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
R5.36 · Pick 176 · Domani Jackson · CB · rank 179
Domani Jackson in No. 176 is fair value, right on his grade. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
R5.40 · Pick 180 · Zane Durant · DT · rank 184
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Zane Durant. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R6.1 · Pick 182 · Taylen Green · QB · rank 193
Taylen Green at the Round 6 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R7.2 · Pick 218 · Owen Heinecke · LB · rank 249
Owen Heinecke at pick No. 218 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R7.4 · Pick 220 · Adam Randall · RB · rank 282
Adam Randall at the 220th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
