You could see the war room lean forward. T.J. Sanders at pick No. 220 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.23 · Pick 23 · Travis Hunter · CB · rank 1
In the Round 1 slot they get a potential shutdown corner at a price that makes it sweeter.
R2.22 · Pick 54 · Tre Harris · WR · rank 26
Tre Harris in the 54th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Ashton Jeanty · RB · rank 2
A running back of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 3 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Wyatt Milum · OT · rank 13
Wyatt Milum at slot 69 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.13 · Pick 77 · Walter Nolen · DT · rank 12
Walter Nolen at pick No. 77 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.23 · Pick 87 · Nick Emmanwori · S · rank 16
They robbed the room for Nick Emmanwori here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.7 · Pick 108 · Jalon Walker · LB · rank 22
Steal is underselling it; Jalon Walker at No. 108 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R5.6 · Pick 143 · Josaiah Stewart · DE-EDGE · rank 41
A top-tier edge rusher at a bargain, Josaiah Stewart in the 143rd pick, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R6.9 · Pick 184 · Dylan Fairchild · OG · rank 55
The board fumbled Dylan Fairchild all the way to pick No. 184, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R7.1 · Pick 217 · Xavier Restrepo · WR · rank 49
Xavier Restrepo in slot 217 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R7.4 · Pick 220 · T.J. Sanders · DT · rank 24
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like T.J. Sanders reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R7.22 · Pick 238 · Kyle Kennard · DE-EDGE · rank 76
Circle this one: Kyle Kennard at pick 238 is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
