FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Patriots and Slaughter: B. The board owed the Patriots one, and it paid up: Jake Slaughter, the No. 22 name on the board, sitting there at No. 44 like a gift left on the doorstep.
The Washington II reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.
The DaRon Bland deal gives the class an established piece to lean on. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.
Pick Analysis
Pick26
Rnd1
Jordyn Tyson
In the 26th overall pick they get a matchup problem out wide. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39
Rnd2
Denzel Boston
Denzel Boston at pick 39 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick44
Rnd2
Jake Slaughter
The board fumbled Jake Slaughter all the way to the Round 2 slot, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick58
Rnd2
Aamil Wagner
Aamil Wagner at the 58th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick90
Rnd3
Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles at Round 3, Pick 26 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick91
Rnd3
Jack Endries
Jack Endries in slot 91 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick112
Rnd4
Kaytron Allen
Kaytron Allen slipping to No. 112 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick129
Rnd4
Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at pick No. 129 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick165
Rnd5
Taylen Green
A slide stopped in slot 165, with Taylen Green worth more than the price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick190
Rnd6
Elliot Washington II
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Elliot Washington II well ahead of where he belonged. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick218
Rnd7
J.C. Davis
No edge and no loss on J.C. Davis in pick 218; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick225
Rnd7
Tosh Baker
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tosh Baker this early at the 225th pick. It fills a real need, too.
