FutureB-
The Patriots finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B-. The Patriots spent the pick that matters most on Drake Maye, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. The bottom line is a respectable B-.
They are betting Holker proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move.
They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Drake Maye
In slot 3 they get a franchise quarterback at fair value.
Pick34
Rnd2
Darius Robinson
They paid sticker price for Darius Robinson in the 34th pick, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick68
Rnd3
Devontez Walker
Devontez Walker at No. 68 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick69
Rnd3
Kiran Amegadjie
A reasonable price with a little left over, Kiran Amegadjie in pick 69. It fills a real need, too.
Pick136
Rnd4
Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker at the Round 4 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
