The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Terrion Arnold, No. 100, roughly 80 picks past where he belonged. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

Caleb Williams gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it.

With wide receiver, tight end and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on DT-EDGE is the choice that costs them. They will need Powers-Johnson to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.2 · Pick 2 · Caleb Williams · QB · rank 2
In the Round 1 slot they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
R2.4 · Pick 36 · Jackson Powers-Johnson · C · rank 51
They went early on Jackson Powers-Johnson in slot 36, and the value did not follow. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R2.8 · Pick 40 · Patrick Paul · OT · rank 48
They paid up for Patrick Paul at slot 40 when waiting would have done the job. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Cooper Beebe · OG · rank 78
Cooper Beebe in the 67th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.37 · Pick 100 · Terrion Arnold · CB · rank 20
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Terrion Arnold in the 100th pick, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R4.2 · Pick 102 · Maason Smith · DT-EDGE · rank 87
They bypassed pressing needs at wide receiver, tight end and other spots to take Maason Smith, a DT-EDGE that was not the priority.
R5.5 · Pick 141 · Darius Robinson · DL-EDGE · rank 121
Darius Robinson at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.6 · Pick 181 · Ty'Ron Hopper · LB · rank 153
Ty'Ron Hopper at No. 181 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R7.3 · Pick 223 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 155
Braelon Allen in Round 7, Pick 3 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
