FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Commanders for Alexander: B. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Bear Alexander, the No. 67 name on the board, stolen at the 110th overall pick. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. The Grant Delpit deal gives the class an established piece to lean on. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.
Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick18
Rnd1
Charlie Becker
In the 18th overall pick they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41
Rnd2
Chris Cole
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Chris Cole in the Round 2 slot, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick73
Rnd3
Jamari Johnson
Jamari Johnson in slot 73 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick82
Rnd3
Kade Pieper
You do not let an offensive lineman like Kade Pieper reach pick No. 82 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick110
Rnd4
Bear Alexander
Bear Alexander in the 110th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick118
Rnd4
Jyaire Hill
They robbed the room for Jyaire Hill here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick148
Rnd5
Raleek Brown
Raleek Brown at pick 148 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick188
Rnd6
Braelin Moore
Braelin Moore slipping to Round 6, Pick 9 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick230
Rnd7
Bryce Hawthorne
Bryce Hawthorne at the 230th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
