You could see the war room lean forward. Bhayshul Tuten at pick 241 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with running back the one that mattered most. Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Mason Graham · DT · rank 6
Mason Graham in pick 25 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Tyler Warren · TE · rank 43
A slide stopped in slot 58, with Tyler Warren worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R3.25 · Pick 89 · Dylan Fairchild · OG · rank 55
Steal is underselling it; Dylan Fairchild at the 89th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R4.25 · Pick 126 · Tez Johnson · WR · rank 93
Circle this one: Tez Johnson at the Round 4 slot is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.28 · Pick 165 · Sonny Styles · S · rank 121
A safety of that caliber at pick No. 165 is the definition of value, full stop. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R7.25 · Pick 241 · Bhayshul Tuten · RB · rank 154
Bhayshul Tuten in No. 241 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
