Some picks age like wine; Stone Handy at the 247th pick will need to, sitting 100 spots clear of his grade.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Belton. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.15 · Pick 15 · Ashton Jeanty · RB · rank 2
In No. 15 they get a bell-cow for the offense, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
R1.16 · Pick 16 · Tetairoa McMillan · WR · rank 9
In Round 1, Pick 16 they get a home-run threat at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Omarr Norman-Lott · DT · rank 70
Omarr Norman-Lott at pick No. 76 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The roster fit checks out.
R4.23 · Pick 125 · Jake Majors · C · rank 102
Taking Jake Majors in the 125th overall pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.11 · Pick 149 · Smael Mondon Jr. · LB · rank 109
Smael Mondon Jr. in the Round 5 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R5.32 · Pick 170 · Anthony Belton · OT · rank 115
The board fumbled Anthony Belton all the way to the 170th pick, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R5.33 · Pick 171 · Billy Bowman Jr. · S · rank 116
Billy Bowman Jr. in No. 171 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R5.36 · Pick 174 · Cody Simon · LB · rank 129
They barely believed it either: Cody Simon still on the board at the 174th overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R6.12 · Pick 188 · LeQuint Allen · RB · rank 134
LeQuint Allen in pick No. 188 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R6.22 · Pick 198 · Dorian Strong · CB · rank 163
They robbed the room for Dorian Strong here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.33 · Pick 209 · JJ Pegues · DT · rank 176
Circle this one: JJ Pegues at pick 209 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.35 · Pick 211 · Ollie Gordon II · RB · rank 164
A running back of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R7.31 · Pick 247 · Stone Handy · LB-EDGE · rank 347
Stone Handy at the 247th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
