The Patriots cashed the board's mistake on Hampton: B+. When a board-topper like Omarion Hampton slides to No. 97, you do not overthink it, and the Patriots did not. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B+.
They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
If Conerly Jr. pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The Justin Jefferson pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
Josh Conerly Jr.
In the 24th pick they get an anchor for the offensive line, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
You do not let a tight end like Tyler Warren reach the 38th overall pick and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick40
Rnd2
Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea in pick No. 40 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick69
Rnd3
Deone Walker
Deone Walker in slot 69 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick77
Rnd3
Xavier Watts
The board fumbled Xavier Watts all the way to Round 3, Pick 13, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick97
Rnd3
Omarion Hampton
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Omarion Hampton in No. 97, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick104
Rnd4
Maxwell Hairston
Taking Maxwell Hairston in the Round 4 slot is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick138
Rnd5
Dylan Fairchild
They barely believed it either: Dylan Fairchild still on the board at pick 138. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick143
Rnd5
Jake Majors
Jake Majors in slot 143 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
