The Rams in particular made some great picks after Tillman went off the board, selecting a pair of impact defenders in Byron Young at pick 77 and Kobie Turner at pick 89. Both players have at least 15 sacks already.The Panthers traded up to pick 80 to select linebacker DJ Johnson. He has started just five of 27 games played in two seasons and has 60 tackles.
The Seahawks selected LSU guard Anthony Bradford with the 108th pick in the draft, and he has been a player Seattle has leaned on to start numerous games. Bradford has played in 25 games in his two seasons, starting 21 of them.The 49ers picked Alabama tight end Cameron Latu at pick 101. He has yet to appear in a single NFL game.Ika was a player I wasn’t high on after a very poor performance at the NFL combine. But I understood the rationale of the pick.
However, the Chiefs also got themselves a valuable defensive contributor in defensive back Chamarri Conner at 119. He has started 16 of 32 regular season games played in two seasons, and he has 89 solo tackles, three interceptions, a forced fumble and five pass breakups.The Patriots used the following pick on kicker Chad Ryland. He had a bad 2023 in New England, and the Patriots cut him prior to the start of the 2024 season. He signed with Arizona and really improved, hitting 87.
McGuire responded well to the extra opportunity, recording 2.5 sacks, eight tackles for loss and three forced fumbles in a largely rotational role. He has also been an analytics darling,The next edge rusher off the board went to the Steelers at pick 132 in Wisconsin’s Nick Herbig. He has already produced well with 8.5 sacks and six forced fumbles in 30 games played.A pair of players taken back-to-back, 128th pick Stetson Bennett IV and 129th pick Viliami Fehoko, have yet to take an NFL snap.
The Browns had picks 140 and 142 in this draft, but there was one player they clearly missed on along with the rest of the NFL. The athletic ability is intriguing, but Thompson-Robinson simply has not been able to slow the game down as a passer and the TD-to-INT ratio is simply not good enough.Two picks after the Browns selected Thompson-Robinson, they went back to helping their secondary by picking the former Northwestern corner.
However, considering the issues the Browns have had with finding skill players and seeing Chase Brown and Puka Nacua go off the board after them, it hurts this grade a little bit considering the surplus the Browns have had at corner.The Browns completed their 2023 draft by selecting Wypler, their second Ohio State offensive lineman of the day after taking Dawand Jones early in the fourth round.
