Larceny in pick 219 lands the Patriots a A, Bassa and all. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Jeffrey Bassa, the No. 131 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 219.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Spending an early pick on linebacker with edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.
The Justin Jefferson deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.
A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Will Campbell
In pick No. 19 they get a blindside protector at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
They barely believed it either: Malaki Starks still on the board at No. 37. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick38
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
Steal is underselling it; Tyler Warren at the 38th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick58
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at Round 2, Pick 26 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick69
Rnd3
Omarion Hampton
They robbed the room for Omarion Hampton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick88
Rnd3
Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor in pick 88 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick106
Rnd4
Kaleb Johnson
Somehow Kaleb Johnson was still sitting there in the 106th overall pick, and they pounced on premier running back value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick120
Rnd4
Chris Paul Jr.
Of all the spots to shop, they chose linebacker. Chris Paul Jr. in slot 120 leaves edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots for later.
Pick145
Rnd5
Mason Taylor
The board fumbled Mason Taylor all the way to the Round 5 slot, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick182
Rnd6
Tyler Cooper
A tidy little value on Tyler Cooper in the 182nd overall pick, a step better than break-even. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick196
Rnd6
Andres Borregales
A top-tier specialist at a bargain, Andres Borregales in No. 196, plain and simple. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick219
Rnd7
Jeffrey Bassa
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 1 is the definition of value, full stop. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick222
Rnd7
DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell in the 222nd pick is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick223
Rnd7
James Burnip
James Burnip in slot 223 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick240
Rnd7
Jack Kiser
You do not let a linebacker like Jack Kiser reach pick No. 240 and blink. They did not. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick243
Rnd7
Hunter Wohler
Hunter Wohler at pick 243 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
