They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Montrell Johnson Jr., 31 picks early at No. 219.

They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it. They will answer for taking defensive back early while cornerback, quarterback and other spots went begging.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.7 · Pick 7 · Joe Alt · OT · rank 4
In slot 7 they get a building block for the line at fair value.
R2.7 · Pick 39 · Keon Coleman · WR · rank 38
By-the-book stuff, Keon Coleman at the 39th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
R2.16 · Pick 48 · Jonathon Brooks · RB · rank 53
They took Jonathon Brooks at par in the 48th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.7 · Pick 71 · Rod Moore · DB · rank 73
Of all the spots to shop, they chose defensive back. Rod Moore in No. 71 leaves cornerback, quarterback and other spots for later.
R3.18 · Pick 82 · Michael Hall Jr. · DT · rank 78
A reasonable price with a little left over, Michael Hall Jr. in Round 3, Pick 18. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R4.7 · Pick 107 · Javion Cohen · OG · rank 110
Javion Cohen at the Round 4 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 138
No edge and no loss on Cedric Gray in Round 4, Pick 35; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R6.10 · Pick 185 · Chau Smith-Wade · DB · rank 196
Chau Smith-Wade at pick No. 185 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · Rylie Mills · DL-EDGE · rank 237
They reached a country mile for Rylie Mills at the Round 6 slot, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Montrell Johnson Jr. · RB · rank 250
They talked themselves into Montrell Johnson Jr. at No. 219, and the board did not agree. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R7.8 · Pick 228 · Zion Nelson · OT · rank 238
A conviction pick on Zion Nelson at slot 228 that the board grades a round light. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
