FutureA
The Patriots won the night they stopped Hunter from sliding. Grade: B+. The rest of the league will want that one back. Jarquez Hunter tumbling to the Patriots in Round 7, Pick 4 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. No fireworks, but a solid B+.
Reaching for Oladejo left real value on the table behind him. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Matthew Golden
In slot 14 they get a home-run threat at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick38
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
The board fumbled Tyler Warren all the way to pick 38, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick44
Rnd2
Aireontae Ersery
A straight-up fair deal on Aireontae Ersery at No. 44, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick76
Rnd3
Alfred Collins
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Alfred Collins reach the 76th pick and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick77
Rnd3
Isaiah Bond
They paid sticker price for Isaiah Bond in Round 3, Pick 13, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick86
Rnd3
Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo in pick No. 86 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick106
Rnd4
Kevin Winston Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kevin Winston Jr. at the Round 4 slot. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick117
Rnd4
Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish in the 117th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick119
Rnd4
Oluwafemi Oladejo
Oluwafemi Oladejo in pick No. 119 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick125
Rnd4
Joshua Farmer
A quiet steal in the 125th pick: Joshua Farmer for less than the market said. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick144
Rnd5
Ben Sauls
Ben Sauls in the 144th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick149
Rnd5
Tyler Baron
Tyler Baron at slot 149 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick171
Rnd5
Drew Kendall
They reached a country mile for Drew Kendall at the Round 5 slot, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick199
Rnd6
Jaylen Reed
They read the board right and Jaylen Reed was the payoff at No. 199. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick220
Rnd7
Jarquez Hunter
Jarquez Hunter in Round 7, Pick 4 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick238
Rnd7
Donovan Edwards
Donovan Edwards in pick 238 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
