Good, not great, for the Patriots: B. Nobody else had Isaac Guerendo anywhere near Round 4, Pick 6. The Patriots did, by 32 spots, and that gap is the whole story. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
A whole weekend of picks and safety is somehow still a want. The Rice value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In slot 3 they get a matchup problem out wide. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38
Rnd2
Junior Colson
A reach for Junior Colson in pick No. 38; a little patience would have been rewarded. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick78
Rnd3
Kingsley Suamataia
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kingsley Suamataia at pick 78 is the proof. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick100
Rnd3
Theo Johnson
By-the-book stuff, Theo Johnson at Round 3, Pick 37 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick103
Rnd4
Roger Rosengarten
Good price on Roger Rosengarten in the Round 4 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick106
Rnd4
Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo at No. 106 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick137
Rnd5
Brenden Rice
A quiet steal in No. 137: Brenden Rice for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick180
Rnd6
Justin Eboigbe
A premium they did not need to pay, Justin Eboigbe a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick182
Rnd6
Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon at the 182nd overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick193
Rnd6
Justin Rogers
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Justin Rogers. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick231
Rnd7
Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in slot 231 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
