You could see the war room lean forward. Aireontae Ersery at pick No. 81 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. The cost of the Kone reach is exactly the players who went right after him. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
