Daniels is the plan now, and the Patriots grade out a A-. Nobody else had Fabien Lovett anywhere near slot 182. The Patriots did, by 153 spots, and that gap is the whole story.
Jayden Daniels is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. On value alone, Amegadjie makes the weekend a net positive.
Spending an early pick on linebacker with edge rusher and safety open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.
It is a haul that will look even better come September.
Pick Analysis
Pick13
Rnd1
Jayden Daniels
In the Round 1 slot they get a franchise quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick27
Rnd1
Keon Coleman
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton in slot 35 is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick44
Rnd2
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in No. 44 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick66
Rnd3
Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske in the 66th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick68
Rnd3
Marist Liufau
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Marist Liufau. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick79
Rnd3
Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie in pick No. 79 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick103
Rnd4
Will Shipley
Value said wait; Will Shipley in slot 103 says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
Pick109
Rnd4
Theo Johnson
They reached a country mile for Theo Johnson at the 109th pick, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick114
Rnd4
Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson at Round 4, Pick 14 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick133
Rnd4
Curtis Jacobs
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 133 on Curtis Jacobs with edge rusher and safety unsolved.
Pick143
Rnd5
Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis in the Round 5 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick182
Rnd6
Fabien Lovett
They talked themselves into Fabien Lovett at the 182nd overall pick, and the board did not agree. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick224
Rnd7
Jawhar Jordan
The board had Jawhar Jordan higher than pick 224, and the running back fell to them anyway. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
