This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Nathan Thomas, the No. 229 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 255.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Troy Fautanu · OT · rank 22
In No. 25 they get a building block for the line. A real need, handled.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Chris Braswell · LB-EDGE · rank 44
By-the-book stuff, Chris Braswell at slot 41 squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · T.J. Tampa · CB · rank 51
Fair-plus on T.J. Tampa, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 85
Jaden Hicks at pick 88 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Bucky Irving · RB · rank 90
A straight-up fair deal on Bucky Irving at the 91st overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Josh Newton · CB · rank 121
Josh Newton in Round 4, Pick 26 lands just on the right side of the ledger. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Javion Cohen · OG · rank 169
No edge and no loss on Javion Cohen in pick No. 169; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Isaiah Williams · WR · rank 180
Taking Isaiah Williams in the Round 6 slot is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Caedan Wallace · OT · rank 213
Nothing to complain about; Caedan Wallace went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Bub Means · WR · rank 245
Bub Means at No. 245 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Nathan Thomas · OT · rank 229
They will replay Nathan Thomas at pick 255 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
