FutureB-
Maye is the Patriots' new face under center. Grade: B. After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Patriots committed. Drake Maye is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.
Every board in the league had McMahon lower, and that gap is the story. Landing Coleman that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.
The Solomon pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots still on the board. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Drake Maye
In pick 3 they get a franchise quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick41
Rnd2
Kingsley Suamataia
They jumped the gun on Kingsley Suamataia, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The roster fit checks out.
Pick70
Rnd3
Keon Coleman
They barely believed it either: Keon Coleman still on the board at the Round 3 slot. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick88
Rnd3
Cam Hart
No drama and no debate, Cam Hart went about where he belonged in the 88th pick. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick104
Rnd4
Javon Solomon
A surprising call. With edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots still to address, they spent Round 4, Pick 4 on Javon Solomon, an OLB-EDGE they were not short of.
Pick136
Rnd4
Christian Jones
By-the-book stuff, Christian Jones at slot 136 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick140
Rnd5
Ben Sinnott
Value with a capital V on Ben Sinnott in the 140th overall pick, a genuine coup. It fills a real need, too.
Pick182
Rnd6
Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones in No. 182 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick204
Rnd6
Daijun Edwards
Daijun Edwards at the 204th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick229
Rnd7
Dylan McMahon
Dylan McMahon at pick 229 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
