You could see the war room lean forward. Myles Harden at Round 7, Pick 30 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Add it all up and it grades out a clean A.

Jayden Daniels gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

Bottom line, with Jayden Daniels leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.7 · Pick 7 · Jayden Daniels · QB · rank 6
They paid sticker price for Jayden Daniels in pick No. 7, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R1.10 · Pick 10 · Marvin Harrison Jr. · WR · rank 1
In the 10th pick they get a go-to option on the outside, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.15 · Pick 47 · Tyler Nubin · S · rank 40
Tyler Nubin at No. 47 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.6 · Pick 70 · Ladd McConkey · WR · rank 29
They barely believed it either: Ladd McConkey still on the board at Round 3, Pick 6. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R3.11 · Pick 75 · Jaylen Wright · RB · rank 59
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jaylen Wright in the 75th overall pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R4.6 · Pick 106 · Blake Fisher · OT · rank 69
Somehow Blake Fisher was still sitting there in slot 106, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R4.14 · Pick 114 · Andru Phillips · CB · rank 77
Andru Phillips at pick 114 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster fit checks out.
R4.22 · Pick 122 · Khyree Jackson · CB · rank 95
Khyree Jackson at the Round 4 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R5.16 · Pick 152 · Matt Goncalves · OT · rank 106
A offensive lineman of that caliber at pick No. 152 is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.30 · Pick 166 · Erick All · TE · rank 129
Erick All in the 166th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R6.8 · Pick 183 · Jordan Magee · LB · rank 160
The board fumbled Jordan Magee all the way to No. 183, and they scooped it up. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R6.10 · Pick 185 · Marist Liufau · LB · rank 164
Marist Liufau at the 185th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
R6.43 · Pick 218 · Isaiah Davis · RB · rank 155
Isaiah Davis in the 218th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R7.2 · Pick 222 · Evan Williams · S · rank 232
Evan Williams at the Round 7 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.30 · Pick 250 · Myles Harden · CB · rank 168
Circle this one: Myles Harden at slot 250 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
