A- from me.
Burrow was a no-brainer, Higgins was solid value (remember, he was a top 3-4 receiver in this class before the combine), and we needed all the LB help we could get (now we actually have the personnel to play a 3-4 scheme). Other than Higgins and maybe Kareem, none of our picks were redundant -- all the LBs are fast coverage guys, which we were sorely lacking. (Many people were clamoring for Jones or Baun, but I didn't like Jones and Baun looks like the same player as Lawson, injury concerns and all.)
I would have liked to address O-line earlier (and more often), but I think we took the draft as it fell to us. Although I like Adeniji, I think he's a guard in the NFL. Kareem was my least favorite pick, never really stood out to me. Bailey is a potential steal.
