FutureA
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Patriots a B. The Patriots did not so much draft Jared Wilson as overpay for him, 27 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. Good, not great, and the B says as much.
The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. On value alone, Stutsman makes the weekend a net positive.
A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In pick No. 14 they get a matchup problem out wide. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38
Rnd2
Colston Loveland
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Colston Loveland at the Round 2 slot is the proof. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick45
Rnd2
Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson at No. 45 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick69
Rnd3
Charles Grant
A big swing on Charles Grant at pick 69, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick77
Rnd3
Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in slot 77 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick106
Rnd4
Danny Stutsman
They robbed the room for Danny Stutsman here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick144
Rnd5
Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams at Round 5, Pick 6 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick217
Rnd7
Addison West
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Addison West in pick No. 217. The roster fit checks out.
Pick220
Rnd7
Caleb Ransaw
Value with a capital V on Caleb Ransaw in No. 220, a genuine coup. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick232
Rnd7
Alijah Huzzie
Taking Alijah Huzzie in the 232nd pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick238
Rnd7
Ja'Quinden Jackson
They will replay Ja'Quinden Jackson at pick 238 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
