Brop9404 DRAFTING FOR THEPatriots

FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Daniels in the fold, and a B- for the Patriots. The Patriots spent the pick that matters most on Jayden Daniels, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. Jackson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
Every board in the league had Oladapo lower, and that gap is the story.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Jayden Daniels
In the 3rd overall pick they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick50
Rnd2
Keon Coleman
Value with a capital V on Keon Coleman in slot 50, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick53
Rnd2
Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul in the 53rd pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick103
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
The board fumbled Khyree Jackson all the way to No. 103, and they scooped it up. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick137
Rnd5
Kitan Oladapo
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kitan Oladapo well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick180
Rnd6
Zion Tupuola-Fetui
Zion Tupuola-Fetui at pick No. 180 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick193
Rnd6
Tahj Washington
No drama and no debate, Tahj Washington went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick231
Rnd7
Brevyn Spann-Ford
They paid a round early for Brevyn Spann-Ford in pick 231, more than the board wanted. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
