FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Patriots to a D+. The Patriots went off the board in a big way for Aidan Hubbard, 127 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. They will answer for taking linebacker early while quarterback and running back went begging. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.
Pick Analysis
Pick31
Rnd1
Omar Cooper Jr.
In No. 31 they get a go-to option on the outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick63
Rnd2
Jacob Rodriguez
They went early on Jacob Rodriguez in pick 63, and the value did not follow. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick95
Rnd3
Ted Hurst
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 95 with a little surplus value in Ted Hurst. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick125
Rnd4
Isaiah World
Isaiah World at the 125th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick131
Rnd4
Harold Perkins Jr.
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went linebacker with Harold Perkins Jr. while clear needs at quarterback and running back sat open.
Pick132
Rnd4
Max Llewellyn
Max Llewellyn at the Round 4 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick150
Rnd5
Dametrious Crownover
Dametrious Crownover in the 150th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick151
Rnd5
Ar'maj Reed-Adams
Ar'maj Reed-Adams at pick 151 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick162
Rnd5
Zxavian Harris
They let Zxavian Harris come to them and pounced at the Round 5 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick172
Rnd5
Domani Jackson
No drama and no debate, Domani Jackson went about where he belonged in pick No. 172. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick211
Rnd6
Jeremiah Wright
Jeremiah Wright in the 211th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick212
Rnd6
Aiden Fisher
A conviction pick on Aiden Fisher at No. 212 that the board grades a round light. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick231
Rnd7
Aidan Hubbard
They reached into another round for Aidan Hubbard, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick247
Rnd7
Robert Spears-Jennings
They liked Robert Spears-Jennings enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 7, Pick 31. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick250
Rnd7
Josh Cuevas
Josh Cuevas at pick 250 is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
