The Patriots drew a line under the quarterback search with Daniels: B-.

The Patriots did not so much draft Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint as overpay for him, 93 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend.

Everything downstream of Jayden Daniels depends on Jayden Daniels, and the building knows it. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In pick 3 they get the face of the franchise. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
Ladd McConkey at No. 34 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick68 Rnd3 Blake Corum
They liked Blake Corum enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 3 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick103 Rnd4 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at the 103rd pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick137 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
They reached a country mile for Jaheim Bell at slot 137, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick180 Rnd6 Trente Jones
Trente Jones at pick No. 180 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick193 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
No edge and no loss on Curtis Jacobs in the 193rd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick231 Rnd7 Isaac Rex
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Isaac Rex. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
