Best value of the weekend goes to the Browns for Henderson: B-. The rest of the league will want that one back. TreVeyon Henderson tumbling to the Browns in Round 6, Pick 2 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.
The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They are betting Dart proves the room right and everyone else wrong.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Josh Simmons
In pick No. 14 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick33
Rnd2
Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen is a better player than the Round 2 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick34
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
They robbed the room for Tyler Warren here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick35
Rnd2
Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart in Round 2, Pick 3 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick94
Rnd3
Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at the 94th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The roster fit checks out.
Pick163
Rnd5
Demetrius Knight Jr.
Circle this one: Demetrius Knight Jr. at the 163rd overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick177
Rnd6
TreVeyon Henderson
Taking TreVeyon Henderson in No. 177 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick190
Rnd6
Jake Majors
Jake Majors at slot 190 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick198
Rnd6
Connor Colby
Value with a capital V on Connor Colby in the Round 6 slot, a genuine coup. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick214
Rnd6
Cody Simon
A linebacker of that caliber at No. 214 is the definition of value, full stop. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick215
Rnd6
Jaylen Reed
You do not let a safety like Jaylen Reed reach Round 6, Pick 40 and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick256
Rnd7
Deion Burks
A reach for Deion Burks in pick No. 256; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
