This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Bhayshul Tuten, the No. 151 name on the board, stolen at the Round 7 slot. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Every board in the league had Kandra lower, and that gap is the story.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Kenneth Grant · DT · rank 23
In pick 25 they get an anchor for the defensive front. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Tyler Warren · TE · rank 43
Tyler Warren at Round 2, Pick 26 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The roster fit checks out.
R3.25 · Pick 89 · Luke Kandra · OG · rank 105
They paid a round early for Luke Kandra in No. 89, more than the board wanted. It fills a real need, too.
R4.25 · Pick 126 · Andrew Mukuba · S · rank 71
You do not let a safety like Andrew Mukuba reach the 126th overall pick and blink. They did not. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R5.28 · Pick 165 · Kevin Winston Jr. · S · rank 91
Somehow Kevin Winston Jr. was still sitting there in slot 165, and they pounced on premier safety value. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
R7.25 · Pick 241 · Bhayshul Tuten · RB · rank 151
Taking Bhayshul Tuten in the 241st pick is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
