They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Carson Steele, 31 picks early at No. 219. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Rice. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Dallas Turner · LB-EDGE · rank 14
In slot 25 they get a bendy edge with upside, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · T.J. Tampa · CB · rank 40
T.J. Tampa in pick 41 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 54
Nothing to complain about; Kingsley Suamataia went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Brenden Rice · WR · rank 71
The board had Brenden Rice higher than the 88th pick, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R3.29 · Pick 92 · Blake Fisher · OT · rank 99
No drama and no debate, Blake Fisher went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 29. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · James Williams · S · rank 129
By-the-book stuff, James Williams at the 125th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 151
The board had cheaper options than Braelon Allen at the Round 4 slot, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · J.J. Weaver · LB-EDGE · rank 219
J.J. Weaver at slot 203 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Eric Gentry · LB · rank 239
Eric Gentry in the 217th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Carson Steele · RB · rank 250
They reached a country mile for Carson Steele at pick 219, and the board is aghast. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · DeMonte Capehart · DT · rank 265
This one needs a full-page explanation: DeMonte Capehart in No. 246, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
