FutureB
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Packers and Jones: B+. If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Packers, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.
The Jones pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
Reaching for Smith left real value on the table behind him. They will answer for taking safety early while edge rusher and tight end went begging.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick35
Rnd2
Terrion Arnold
A quiet steal in the 35th pick: Terrion Arnold for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick50
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
The board had Tyler Guyton higher than pick 50, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick68
Rnd3
Trey Benson
Trey Benson at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick71
Rnd3
Javon Bullard
A clean, defensible pick in the 71st overall pick with a little surplus value in Javon Bullard. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick91
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
They took Michael Hall Jr. at par in slot 91, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick92
Rnd3
Bucky Irving
They paid sticker price for Bucky Irving in Round 3, Pick 29, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick97
Rnd3
Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith at the 97th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick122
Rnd4
Sataoa Laumea
No edge and no loss on Sataoa Laumea in pick No. 122; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick125
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
Fair-plus on Kris Abrams-Draine, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick131
Rnd4
Tommy Eichenberg
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tommy Eichenberg in No. 131. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick135
Rnd4
James Williams
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with James Williams while clear needs at edge rusher and tight end sat open.
Pick137
Rnd5
Javion Cohen
They jumped the gun on Javion Cohen, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick143
Rnd5
Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at Round 5, Pick 7 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the quarterback. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick149
Rnd5
Ty'Ron Hopper
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ty'Ron Hopper. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick156
Rnd5
Sincere Haynesworth
Nothing to complain about; Sincere Haynesworth went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick186
Rnd6
Julian Pearl
A tidy little value on Julian Pearl in the 186th pick, a step better than break-even. The roster reasoning here is anyone's guess.
Pick203
Rnd6
De'Corian Clark
Nice patience on De'Corian Clark, who had no business lasting to slot 203. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick213
Rnd6
Christian Jones
Christian Jones in pick 213 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick217
Rnd6
Omar Speights
Value with a capital V on Omar Speights in the Round 6 slot, a genuine coup. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick219
Rnd6
Myles Jones
They let Myles Jones come to them and pounced at Round 6, Pick 44. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick227
Rnd7
Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers in the 227th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick246
Rnd7
Carson Steele
A straight-up fair deal on Carson Steele at pick No. 246, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
