It is the swing that defines the weekend: Dominic Zvada in No. 242, a good 65 spots before the room expected him. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The Perkins Jr. pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher and running back still on the board. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Arvell Reese · LB · rank 7
In the 12th overall pick they get a three-down second-level presence. More want than need.
R1.16 · Pick 16 · Carnell Tate · WR · rank 12
In No. 16 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. A real need, handled.
R1.20 · Pick 20 · Olaivavega Ioane · OG · rank 19
In pick No. 20 they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
R2.1 · Pick 33 · Peter Woods · DT · rank 30
A tidy little value on Peter Woods in the Round 2 slot, a step better than break-even. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · Emmanuel McNeil-Warren · S · rank 40
Nothing to complain about; Emmanuel McNeil-Warren went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.28 · Pick 92 · Zachariah Branch · WR · rank 65
Zachariah Branch in slot 92 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R4.3 · Pick 103 · Tacario Davis · CB · rank 111
They went early on Tacario Davis in the 103rd overall pick, and the value did not follow. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R4.12 · Pick 112 · Drew Allar · QB · rank 157
A wild overpay on Drew Allar in the 112th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R4.40 · Pick 140 · Harold Perkins Jr. · LB · rank 134
A surprising call. With edge rusher and running back still to address, they spent pick 140 on Harold Perkins Jr., a linebacker they were not short of.
R5.39 · Pick 179 · Dae'Quan Wright · TE · rank 189
Dae'Quan Wright at Round 5, Pick 39 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R7.12 · Pick 228 · TJ Hall · CB · rank 231
TJ Hall in slot 228 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R7.26 · Pick 242 · Dominic Zvada · PK · rank 307
They talked themselves into Dominic Zvada at the Round 7 slot, and the board did not agree. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
