The Patriots robbed the room for Smith. Final grade: A. The Patriots spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Brashard Smith, the No. 100 name on the board, in slot 221. One of the weekend's best, top to bottom, and a A to show for it.
They will need Sapp to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped safety, which is a strange place to end up.
Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Tetairoa McMillan and all.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In pick No. 14 they get a matchup problem out wide, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick69
Rnd3
Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at slot 69 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick104
Rnd4
Barrett Carter
Steal is underselling it; Barrett Carter at pick 104 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick152
Rnd5
Danny Stutsman
Circle this one: Danny Stutsman at the 152nd pick is a fall that decides a draft. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick168
Rnd5
Howard Cross III
Howard Cross III in the Round 5 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick186
Rnd6
Jacob Parrish
A reach on Jacob Parrish in Round 6, Pick 11; the board had better options right there. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick191
Rnd6
Tosh Baker
Tosh Baker at No. 191 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick192
Rnd6
Tyreak Sapp
They talked themselves into Tyreak Sapp at the 192nd overall pick, and the board did not agree. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick198
Rnd6
Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier in slot 198 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick217
Rnd7
Oronde Gadsden II
The board fumbled Oronde Gadsden II all the way to pick No. 217, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick221
Rnd7
Brashard Smith
Somehow Brashard Smith was still sitting there in Round 7, Pick 5, and they pounced on premier running back value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
