FutureD
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Patriots and Milum: B. The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Patriots watched Wyatt Milum slide 188 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. More right than wrong, and a B to match.
They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They will answer for taking linebacker early while wide receiver, quarterback and other spots went begging. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Abdul Carter
In the 4th pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in slot 38 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick69
Rnd3
Jahdae Barron
The board fumbled Jahdae Barron all the way to Round 3, Pick 5, and they scooped it up. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick77
Rnd3
Jihaad Campbell
Of all the spots to shop, they chose linebacker. Jihaad Campbell in pick 77 leaves wide receiver, quarterback and other spots for later.
Pick105
Rnd4
Malaki Starks
Somehow Malaki Starks was still sitting there in pick No. 105, and they pounced on premier safety value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick145
Rnd5
Marcus Mbow
Marcus Mbow at No. 145 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick197
Rnd6
Quinshon Judkins
They barely believed it either: Quinshon Judkins still on the board at the Round 6 slot. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219
Rnd7
Josaiah Stewart
They will replay Josaiah Stewart at the 219th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick222
Rnd7
Wyatt Milum
Steal is underselling it; Wyatt Milum at pick 222 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick235
Rnd7
Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in No. 235 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick240
Rnd7
Dylan Fairchild
They robbed the room for Dylan Fairchild here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick242
Rnd7
Omarr Norman-Lott
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Omarr Norman-Lott in the 242nd overall pick, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
