2024 NFL Draft
· 7 picks
· 4 steals
· 2 reaches
This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Amarius Mims, the No. 23 name on the board, stolen at slot 56.
The cost of the Allen reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.
Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick 24 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
They robbed the room for Amarius Mims here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Braelon Allen this early at Round 3, Pick 24. It fills a real need, too.
Delmar Glaze at pick No. 174 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
They will replay Kalen King at slot 216 for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
They let Joe Milton III come to them and pounced at the 233rd overall pick. The roster fit checks out.
You do not let a linebacker like Steele Chambers reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
