Some picks age like wine; Cam Miller at No. 150 will need to, sitting 115 spots clear of his grade.

The Schwesinger pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Luther Burden III and all.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.17 · Pick 17 · Luther Burden III · WR · rank 16
In the 17th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.13 · Pick 45 · Tyler Booker · OG · rank 37
Value with a capital V on Tyler Booker in the Round 2 slot, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.4 · Pick 68 · Xavier Watts · S · rank 46
A safety of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 4 is the definition of value, full stop. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R3.17 · Pick 81 · Quinshon Judkins · RB · rank 70
Quinshon Judkins in pick No. 81 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R3.30 · Pick 94 · Darien Porter · CB · rank 78
Darien Porter at No. 94 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.18 · Pick 119 · Danny Stutsman · LB · rank 84
They barely believed it either: Danny Stutsman still on the board at pick 119. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R5.5 · Pick 142 · Jack Bech · WR · rank 95
Circle this one: Jack Bech at No. 142 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.13 · Pick 150 · Cam Miller · QB · rank 265
A big swing on Cam Miller at Round 5, Pick 13, well ahead of any board in the building. The roster fit checks out.
R6.3 · Pick 178 · CJ West · DT · rank 199
They left a pile of value on the table to take CJ West this early at pick 178. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R6.41 · Pick 216 · Carson Schwesinger · LB · rank 127
Carson Schwesinger at pick No. 216 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
R7.6 · Pick 222 · Andres Borregales · PK · rank 147
Andres Borregales in slot 222 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
