You could see the war room lean forward. Daylen Everette at the 108th overall pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.
A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. They are betting Durant proves the room right and everyone else wrong.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick No. 25 they get an anchor for the offensive line. A real need, handled.
Fair-plus on A.J. Haulcy, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Sam Hecht in Round 3, Pick 25 is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
They robbed the room for Daylen Everette here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
No drama and no debate, Kaleb Proctor went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Zane Durant at No. 170 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Jaydn Ott at slot 239 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Eli Heidenreich in the 241st overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
