Some picks age like wine; Tahj Washington at Round 6, Pick 42 will need to, sitting 145 spots clear of his grade.

Landing Trotter Jr. that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.26 · Pick 26 · Adonai Mitchell · WR · rank 34
In slot 26 they get a matchup problem out wide, reach and all.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Graham Barton · OT · rank 30
They let Graham Barton come to them and pounced at the 41st overall pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · T'Vondre Sweat · DL · rank 60
No drama and no debate, T'Vondre Sweat went about where he belonged in pick No. 57. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Jeremiah Trotter Jr. · LB · rank 61
They robbed the room for Jeremiah Trotter Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R3.26 · Pick 89 · Javon Solomon · OLB-EDGE · rank 108
Javon Solomon at No. 89 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
R3.29 · Pick 92 · Ray Davis · RB · rank 109
Ray Davis in Round 3, Pick 29 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · DJ James · CB · rank 113
They read the board right and DJ James was the payoff at the 125th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Ben Sinnott · TE · rank 143
They liked Ben Sinnott enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 135. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R5.25 · Pick 161 · Christian Jones · OT · rank 197
Christian Jones at pick 161 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Jaden Shirden · RB · rank 306
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jaden Shirden well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R6.29 · Pick 204 · Charles Turner III · C · rank 312
A big swing on Charles Turner III at Round 6, Pick 29, well ahead of any board in the building. The roster fit checks out.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Tahj Washington · WR · rank 362
Tahj Washington at the Round 6 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Xavier Thomas · DE-EDGE · rank 255
They talked themselves into Xavier Thomas at pick No. 219, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.45 · Pick 220 · Kedon Slovis · QB · rank 241
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kedon Slovis in the 220th overall pick, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · Ja'Had Carter · S · rank 252
Ja'Had Carter in the 246th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
