The Patriots robbed the room for Warren. Final grade: A-. Whoever sat across the table from the Patriots should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend. One of the weekend's best, top to bottom, and a A- to show for it.
Landing Warren that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They are betting Revel Jr. proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The veteran additions, Bernhard Raimann chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.
In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Jack Sawyer
In pick 19 they get a problem off the edge, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in Round 2, Pick 1 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick36
Rnd2
Shavon Revel Jr.
The board had cheaper options than Shavon Revel Jr. at the 36th overall pick, and it noticed. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick52
Rnd2
Jonah Savaiinaea
Good price on Jonah Savaiinaea in the Round 2 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
Pick67
Rnd3
Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson is a better player than slot 67 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick68
Rnd3
Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant in pick No. 68 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick83
Rnd3
Deontae Lawson
They took Deontae Lawson at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick93
Rnd3
Kevin Winston Jr.
The board had Kevin Winston Jr. higher than pick 93, and the safety fell to them anyway. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick103
Rnd4
Danny Stutsman
A quiet steal in slot 103: Danny Stutsman for less than the market said. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick123
Rnd4
Tyler Warren
Circle this one: Tyler Warren at the 123rd pick is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick139
Rnd5
Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock at Round 5, Pick 1 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick140
Rnd5
Jack Bech
By-the-book stuff, Jack Bech at No. 140 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick199
Rnd6
Kurtis Rourke
A reasonable price with a little left over, Kurtis Rourke in the 199th overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick217
Rnd7
Kyren Lacy
Kyren Lacy slid further than he should have, and pick No. 217 is lovely value for the wide receiver. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick220
Rnd7
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at Round 7, Pick 6. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick235
Rnd7
Tony Grimes
A slide stopped in No. 235, with Tony Grimes worth more than the price. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick241
Rnd7
Makari Paige
The board fumbled Makari Paige all the way to the 241st overall pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
