Football88 DRAFTING FOR THEPatriots

The Patriots let Bassa fall and pounced. Final grade: B-. Thirty-one other rooms let Jeffrey Bassa slide, and the Patriots were the ones holding the card at pick No. 220. Highway robbery. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.
Every board in the league had Jones Jr. lower, and that gap is the story. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Travis Hunter
In pick No. 1 they get an island corner. More want than need.
Pick36
Rnd2
Tate Ratledge
Fair-plus on Tate Ratledge, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick67
Rnd3
Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in the 67th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick82
Rnd3
Dylan Sampson
They barely believed it either: Dylan Sampson still on the board at No. 82. The roster fit checks out.
Pick103
Rnd4
Andrew Mukuba
A safety of that caliber at Round 4, Pick 2 is the definition of value, full stop. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick136
Rnd4
Jake Majors
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Jake Majors in slot 136, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick138
Rnd5
Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at the 138th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219
Rnd7
Nick Nash
A wild overpay on Nick Nash in the Round 7 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick220
Rnd7
Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa in the 220th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick238
Rnd7
Jaylen Reed
Somehow Jaylen Reed was still sitting there in No. 238, and they pounced on premier safety value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
