Future B-

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Raheim Sanders, the No. 148 name on the board, stolen at Round 6, Pick 35. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

The skill positions did well by the weekend. They chose more darts over a bigger single swing.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.17 · Pick 17 · Tetairoa McMillan · WR · rank 9
In pick 17 they get a difference-maker at receiver, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · Omarion Hampton · RB · rank 32
Value with a capital V on Omarion Hampton in the 44th overall pick, a genuine coup. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R2.17 · Pick 49 · Jonah Savaiinaea · OT · rank 47
A straight-up fair deal on Jonah Savaiinaea at Round 2, Pick 17, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Jack Bech · WR · rank 66
Jack Bech at slot 76 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R4.17 · Pick 119 · Jalen Milroe · QB · rank 95
Jalen Milroe in No. 119 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
R5.11 · Pick 149 · Jordan Phillips · DT · rank 108
The board fumbled Jordan Phillips all the way to pick No. 149, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.33 · Pick 171 · Quincy Riley · CB · rank 174
Quincy Riley at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.36 · Pick 174 · Jake Briningstool · TE · rank 163
A quiet steal in the 174th pick: Jake Briningstool for less than the market said. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.28 · Pick 204 · Tommi Hill · CB · rank 155
Tommi Hill at Round 6, Pick 28 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R6.35 · Pick 211 · Raheim Sanders · RB · rank 148
Raheim Sanders at slot 211 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R7.23 · Pick 239 · CJ West · DT · rank 217
They will replay CJ West at the 239th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R7.31 · Pick 247 · Teddye Buchanan · LB · rank 238
Teddye Buchanan in No. 247 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
