![]() ![]() But I can't condone the rest of what Houston was up to this weekend. 44 pick on a non-explosive slot receiver coming off an ACL injury. The Texans used a top-three pick on a corner who hasn’t played well since 2019 and is coming off a Lisfranc injury, a top-15 pick on a guard with below-average NFL athleticism, and the No. Death, taxes, and Baltimore destroying the NFL Draft. Faalele and Kolar were incredible values in R4. Baltimore then got Ojabo – a player mocked in the top-10 prior to his torn Achilles in the pre-draft process – at 2.45. The Ravens got outstanding value with each first-round pick, stopping Hamilton’s fall at 1.14 and then taking advantage of the NFL’s skittishness over Linderbaum’s arm length to get outstanding on PFF’s highest-ever graded center at 1.25. I loved the trade that netted a second first-rounder for Hollywood Brown… that’s not even included in this grade. But it’s hard to argue too much with bringing in two guys that I believe will be NFL stars, both of whom address critical needs. I wasn’t as big of a fan of the rest of the class. To boot, they happened to plug the Giants’ two-biggest needs coming in. ![]() Both are former five-stars who more than lived up to the billing in college. What an incredible turn of events in the first round to walk away with both Thibodeaux and Neal. But why Asamoah over Nakobe Dean? Minnesota could have traded down half a round and still picked the latter. If you wanted to take an undersized linebacker, by all means. It felt like the Vikings reached for a prospect with a serious off-field concern in his past by at least a round, a prospect who doesn’t have the ceiling to justify the reach. Cine joins Harrison Smith in what will become the hardest-hitting safety duo in the NFL. Kwesi Adofo-Mensah's first two picks were strong, and both targeted a leaking secondary crying out for help. ![]() As was stealing Tom, Enagbare, and Walker. Swooping in to grab Watson was inspired, via a shocking trade with the archrival Vikings. The rest of the class, however, was legitimately slick work from Brian Gutekunst. Walker was outperformed in his own position group by Round 3 pick Channing Tindall last year. We knew one NFL team had become enamored with Quay Walker in the week lead-up to the draft because Walker’s odds to go in the first round went from more than 10-to-1 to 1-to-2 in mere days. There weren’t any more fireworks in the class, but Detroit found good value in its slots and didn’t reach. at a price the Jimmy Johnson and Rich Hill charts suggested was a bargain. Then, Detroit made a dramatic trade with a division rival to move up 20 slots to grab Jameson Williams right as receivers started flying off the board. The Lions capitalized on Jacksonville’s mistake in the top slot to keep local hero Aidan Hutchinson in the state of Michigan. Dallas Cowboys: D+įortune gifted Detroit with a pair of opportunities early and they seized each. That said, Braxton Jones was a strong developmental stab at that point. With such a shoddy offensive line in front of Justin Fields, I was surprised the Bears didn’t pick a prospect at that position until Round 5. I thought Velus Jones was an enormous reach in Round 3. No argument with the first two picks, solid secondary options in the slots they picked. But all the holes meant they had true freedom to stick to a BPA ethos throughout the weekend. The Bears have one of the NFL’s worst rosters and lacked a Round 1 pick. Why not roll the dice on Brandon Smith, Amare Barno, and Kalon Barnes' ridiculous physical packages (or Mays' pedigree)? Chicago Bears: C. While I don’t think Corral is a viable option to start immediately, I like his odds of turning into a quality starter down the line. 6? I loved the dart throw on Matt Corral in R3 for a team that desperately needed a talent infusion in the QB room. We knew Carolina was leaning towards taking a tackle in R1 – but who could have guessed that Ikem Ekwonu, a top-5 overall prospect in the class and a local product, would fall to No. They managed to make lemonade in Las Vegas.
