FutureA
Good, not great, for the Patriots: B-. The Tyler Batty selection is the head-turner. The Patriots reached 77 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Judkins. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.
The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.
Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick8
Rnd1
Will Campbell
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front. A real need, handled.
Pick34
Rnd2
Emeka Egbuka
A tidy little value on Emeka Egbuka in No. 34, a step better than break-even. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick36
Rnd2
Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge in pick No. 36 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick39
Rnd2
Benjamin Morrison
The board had cheaper options than Benjamin Morrison at slot 39, and it noticed. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick67
Rnd3
Jalon Walker
A linebacker of that caliber at pick 67 is the definition of value, full stop. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick79
Rnd3
Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in Round 3, Pick 15 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick93
Rnd3
Charles Grant
Charles Grant at slot 93 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It fills a real need, too.
Pick103
Rnd4
Jake Majors
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jake Majors at the 103rd overall pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick138
Rnd5
Quinshon Judkins
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Quinshon Judkins in No. 138, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick140
Rnd5
Barrett Carter
Circle this one: Barrett Carter at Round 5, Pick 3 is a fall that decides a draft. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick219
Rnd7
Tyler Batty
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tyler Batty this early at the 219th pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick220
Rnd7
Logan Parr
Logan Parr in pick 220 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick238
Rnd7
Stone Handy
A big swing on Stone Handy at the Round 7 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
