BBB DRAFTING FOR THEPatriots

FutureB-
The Patriots won the night they stopped Guerendo from sliding. Grade: B. Call it larceny. Isaac Guerendo sat on the board until pick No. 163, and the Patriots did not need to be asked twice.
They are betting Liufau proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They punted on safety, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. On the needs board they went 7 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Joe Alt
In slot 3 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick34
Rnd2
Laiatu Latu
Laiatu Latu in No. 34 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick68
Rnd3
Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in pick 68 is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick108
Rnd4
Maason Smith
A clean, defensible pick in Round 4, Pick 8 with a little surplus value in Maason Smith. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick109
Rnd4
Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at pick No. 109 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick128
Rnd4
Cam Hart
The board had Cam Hart higher than the Round 4 slot, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick137
Rnd5
Jared Wiley
They took Jared Wiley at par in the 137th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick140
Rnd5
Elijah Jones
They paid sticker price for Elijah Jones in the 140th overall pick, and that is fine. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick144
Rnd5
Luke McCaffrey
No drama and no debate, Luke McCaffrey went about where he belonged in slot 144. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick146
Rnd5
Marist Liufau
They talked themselves into Marist Liufau at the Round 5 slot, and the board did not agree. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick163
Rnd5
Isaac Guerendo
Steal is underselling it; Isaac Guerendo at Round 5, Pick 27 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick166
Rnd5
Cornelius Johnson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Cornelius Johnson in the 166th overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick180
Rnd6
Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe in pick No. 180 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick200
Rnd6
Joe Milton III
They liked Joe Milton III enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 200. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
