It is the swing that defines the weekend: Jordan Whittington in pick No. 203, a good 60 spots before the room expected him. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

With edge rusher, quarterback and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them. Getting Clark where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Kamren Kinchens · S · rank 37
In the 25th overall pick they get an enforcer at safety, even if it was a touch early.
R2.16 · Pick 48 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 54
A straight-up fair deal on Kingsley Suamataia at the 48th pick, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Jeremiah Trotter Jr. · LB · rank 61
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Blake Corum · RB · rank 74
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Blake Corum in pick 88. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Zak Zinter · OG · rank 94
Zak Zinter at Round 3, Pick 28 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
R3.33 · Pick 96 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 97
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick No. 96 on Tykee Smith with edge rusher, quarterback and other spots unsolved.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Jarrian Jones · CB · rank 121
Good price on Jarrian Jones in Round 4, Pick 25, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Beaux Limmer · C · rank 140
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Beaux Limmer. The roster fit checks out.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Jordan Whittington · WR · rank 263
Jordan Whittington at slot 203 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.36 · Pick 211 · Jordan Magee · LB · rank 193
Steal is underselling it; Jordan Magee at the 211th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
R6.42 · Pick 217 · De'Corian Clark · WR · rank 195
The board fumbled De'Corian Clark all the way to pick No. 217, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Daequan Hardy · CB · rank 217
No edge and no loss on Daequan Hardy in the 219th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · Trey Wedig · OT · rank 260
Trey Wedig in No. 246 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
