You could see the war room lean forward. Jared Wiley at pick No. 241 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Every board in the league had Clark lower, and that gap is the story.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.1 · Pick 33 · Troy Fautanu · OT · rank 26
Troy Fautanu at Round 2, Pick 1 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R2.23 · Pick 55 · Ruke Orhorhoro · DT · rank 55
No edge and no loss on Ruke Orhorhoro in No. 55; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.1 · Pick 65 · Sedrick Van Pran · C · rank 77
A conviction pick on Sedrick Van Pran at the 65th overall pick that the board grades a round light. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R4.23 · Pick 123 · McKinnley Jackson · DL · rank 123
McKinnley Jackson in pick No. 123 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.30 · Pick 130 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 126
They did well to land Cedric Gray in slot 130, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.32 · Pick 132 · Josh Newton · CB · rank 125
A tidy little value on Josh Newton in the 132nd pick, a step better than break-even. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R6.8 · Pick 183 · Zion Tupuola-Fetui · DE-EDGE · rank 194
Zion Tupuola-Fetui in pick 183 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R7.5 · Pick 225 · Josh Proctor · S · rank 215
They read the board right and Josh Proctor was the payoff at the Round 7 slot. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R7.12 · Pick 232 · LaDarius Henderson · OT · rank 246
LaDarius Henderson at pick No. 232 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R7.21 · Pick 241 · Jared Wiley · TE · rank 200
Jared Wiley at No. 241 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R7.33 · Pick 253 · De'Corian Clark · WR · rank 268
They liked De'Corian Clark enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 7, Pick 33. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
