FutureB-
The phones sank the Patriots this weekend: D+. When the story of this class is written, it opens with Jalen Thompson at pick 247, a reach of 47 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D+.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. That Tate pick is the receipt they will wave around later.
In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In Round 1, Pick 29 they get a green-dot type in the middle at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick62
Rnd2
Carnell Tate
Carnell Tate at pick No. 62 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick68
Rnd3
Caleb Lomu
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Caleb Lomu in slot 68, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick93
Rnd3
Deontae Lawson
Steal is underselling it; Deontae Lawson at No. 93 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick113
Rnd4
Eli Stowers
Taking Eli Stowers in pick 113 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick118
Rnd4
Mikail Kamara
Mikail Kamara at the 118th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick130
Rnd4
Xavier Scott
Xavier Scott at slot 130 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick131
Rnd4
Chase Bisontis
Fair-plus on Chase Bisontis, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick198
Rnd6
Le'Veon Moss
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Le'Veon Moss in pick No. 198. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick216
Rnd7
Cam Calhoun
Nice patience on Cam Calhoun, who had no business lasting to the Round 7 slot. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick244
Rnd7
Fernando Carmona
They paid up for Fernando Carmona at No. 244 when waiting would have done the job. It fills a real need, too.
Pick247
Rnd7
Jalen Thompson
Jalen Thompson at the 247th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick249
Rnd7
Malik Hartford
They robbed the room for Malik Hartford here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick250
Rnd7
Cayden Lee
Cayden Lee slid further than he should have, and Round 7, Pick 35 is lovely value for the wide receiver. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick253
Rnd7
Daevin Hobbs
They read the board right and Daevin Hobbs was the payoff at pick 253. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick257
Rnd7
Haynes King
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Haynes King. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
