When the story of this class is written, it opens with Kalen King at the 88th overall pick, a reach of 51 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

Harden falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 26
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 61
They reached a country mile for Kingsley Suamataia at Round 2, Pick 9, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Braden Fiske · DL · rank 58
Braden Fiske in pick No. 58 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Kalen King · CB · rank 139
Kalen King at slot 88 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Mike Sainristil · CB · rank 75
A slide stopped in the 91st overall pick, with Mike Sainristil worth more than the price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · James Williams · LB · rank 124
James Williams in pick 126 is fair value, right on his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Mason McCormick · OT · rank 146
Taking Mason McCormick in Round 5, Pick 33 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. The roster fit checks out.
R6.27 · Pick 202 · Keith Randolph Jr. · DL-EDGE · rank 218
Keith Randolph Jr. at pick No. 202 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Frank Gore Jr. · RB · rank 226
No edge and no loss on Frank Gore Jr. in the Round 6 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Ryan Flournoy · WR · rank 203
You do not let a wide receiver like Ryan Flournoy reach pick 245 and blink. They did not. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.35 · Pick 255 · Myles Harden · CB · rank 209
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Myles Harden in No. 255, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
