When the story of this class is written, it opens with Evan Williams at slot 169, a reach of 63 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

They banked enough surplus on Magee to cover a lot of smaller sins. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

The Oladapo pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher, cornerback and other spots still on the board.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Jackson Powers-Johnson · C · rank 30
In slot 25 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 48
By-the-book stuff, Edgerrin Cooper at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 54
Javon Bullard at pick No. 58 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A minor itch, scratched.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Jaylen Wright · RB · rank 59
Jaylen Wright in Round 3, Pick 25 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · MarShawn Lloyd · RB · rank 94
They took MarShawn Lloyd at par in No. 91, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Kitan Oladapo · S · rank 142
A surprising call. With edge rusher, cornerback and other spots still to address, they spent the 126th overall pick on Kitan Oladapo, a safety they were not short of.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Evan Williams · S · rank 232
Evan Williams at pick 169 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Tylan Grable · OT · rank 224
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tylan Grable. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Jordan Magee · LB · rank 160
Jordan Magee at No. 219 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Jacob Monk · OT · rank 234
A slide stopped in the 245th overall pick, with Jacob Monk worth more than the price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Jalen Sundell · OT · rank 277
They talked themselves into Jalen Sundell at pick No. 255, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
