Grand theft in No. 62: the Patriots steal Scott and grade out a B-. The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Justin Scott, pick 62, roughly 40 picks past where he belonged. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.
They will need Wein to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Trey'Dez Green
Trey'Dez Green is a better player than the Round 1 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick62
Rnd2
Justin Scott
Justin Scott in No. 62 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick94
Rnd3
Taylor Wein
They reached a country mile for Taylor Wein at slot 94, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick125
Rnd4
Adon Shuler
The board had Adon Shuler higher than pick 125, and the safety fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick130
Rnd4
Nicholas Rodriguez
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 130 with a little surplus value in Nicholas Rodriguez. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick168
Rnd5
Gunner Stockton
Gunner Stockton in Round 5, Pick 30 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick200
Rnd6
Christian Alliegro
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Christian Alliegro. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick207
Rnd6
Maraad Watson
Maraad Watson in the 207th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick239
Rnd7
Boo Carter
They will replay Boo Carter at the 239th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick241
Rnd7
Smith Snowden
A quiet steal in Round 7, Pick 25: Smith Snowden for less than the market said. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick246
Rnd7
Charles Jagusah
A tidy bit of business in the 246th pick, where Charles Jagusah graded well above the range. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
