The war room fell hard for Jacob Parrish, and it showed at No. 159: 32 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.
That Skattebo pick is the receipt they will wave around later. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Job largely done: safety settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick-by-Pick
No drama and no debate, Kenneth Grant went about where he belonged in the 24th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Sebastian Castro is a better player than pick 97 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Cam Skattebo in the Round 5 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
They reached into another round for Jacob Parrish, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
