FutureA+
The Patriots bet the future on Williams. The board says A. They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Caleb Williams is the Patriots' quarterback, full stop. Little to argue with here, and the A says so.
They will need Boyd to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. However the rest shakes out, Rosengarten at that price is a win they earned. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.
For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.
Add it up and this is about as clean as a draft weekend gets.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In pick No. 3 they get a passer to set the clock by at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick35
Rnd2
Amarius Mims
They read the board right and Amarius Mims was the payoff at pick 35. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick61
Rnd2
Roman Wilson
A slide stopped in No. 61, with Roman Wilson worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick71
Rnd3
Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson is a better player than the Round 3 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick76
Rnd3
Kamren Kinchens
A tidy bit of business in the 76th overall pick, where Kamren Kinchens graded well above the range. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick91
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
Nice patience on Mike Sainristil, who had no business lasting to Round 3, Pick 28. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick99
Rnd3
Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni at slot 99 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick108
Rnd4
Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III at the 108th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick129
Rnd4
McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson in Round 4, Pick 29 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick138
Rnd5
Khristian Boyd
They reached into another round for Khristian Boyd, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick164
Rnd5
Jordan Jefferson
A wild overpay on Jordan Jefferson in pick No. 164, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick169
Rnd5
Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten at slot 169 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
