This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Xavier Worthy, the No. 55 name on the board, stolen at Round 3, Pick 24. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Jones reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.24 · Pick 24 · Troy Fautanu · OT · rank 21
In pick No. 24 they get a long-term starter on the line. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.24 · Pick 56 · Jonathon Brooks · RB · rank 48
They let Jonathon Brooks come to them and pounced at No. 56. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.24 · Pick 87 · Xavier Worthy · WR · rank 55
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Xavier Worthy in pick 87, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R5.38 · Pick 174 · Fabien Lovett · DL · rank 183
A reach on Fabien Lovett in the 174th pick; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R6.41 · Pick 216 · Curtis Jacobs · LB · rank 198
Circle this one: Curtis Jacobs at the Round 6 slot is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R7.13 · Pick 233 · Trevin Wallace · LB · rank 233
By-the-book stuff, Trevin Wallace at the 233rd overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R7.24 · Pick 244 · Matthew Jones · OG · rank 265
They reached into another round for Matthew Jones, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
