FutureB-
The Patriots fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+. There is reaching, and then there is Dominic Zvada at Round 7, Pick 2. The Patriots jumped the board by 39 and dared it to prove them wrong.
Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. On value alone, Stowers makes the weekend a net positive.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Jordyn Tyson
In No. 20 they get a true top target at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick57
Rnd2
Malik Muhammad
A slide stopped in the 57th pick, with Malik Muhammad worth more than the price. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick76
Rnd3
Eli Stowers
You do not let a tight end like Eli Stowers reach pick 76 and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick89
Rnd3
Carson Beck
The board had Carson Beck higher than pick No. 89, and the quarterback fell to them anyway. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick112
Rnd4
Caleb Tiernan
Caleb Tiernan in slot 112 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick113
Rnd4
Bryce Lance
A tidy bit of business in the 113th overall pick, where Bryce Lance graded well above the range. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick125
Rnd4
Isaiah Nwokobia
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Isaiah Nwokobia at the 125th pick is the proof. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick129
Rnd4
Austin Romaine
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Austin Romaine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick151
Rnd5
Iapani Laloulu
Taking Iapani Laloulu in the 151st overall pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick152
Rnd5
Bud Clark
They let Bud Clark come to them and pounced at pick No. 152. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick190
Rnd6
De'Zhaun Stribling
They reached into another round for De'Zhaun Stribling, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick203
Rnd6
Elliot Washington II
Elliot Washington II in pick 203 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick218
Rnd7
Dominic Zvada
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Dominic Zvada well ahead of where he belonged. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick225
Rnd7
A'Marion Peterson
They went early on A'Marion Peterson in the Round 7 slot, and the value did not follow. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
