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.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They went 1 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
