FutureB-
The phones sank the Patriots this weekend: C. The war room fell hard for Jordan Hall, and it showed at pick No. 209: 34 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.
The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.
The King pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.
Hit on Akheem Mesidor and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Akheem Mesidor
In No. 30 they get a disruptor off the edge, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62
Rnd2
Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott in Round 2, Pick 30 is fair value, right on his grade. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick94
Rnd3
Jacob Rodriguez
A straight-up fair deal on Jacob Rodriguez at the Round 3 slot, value and slot in agreement. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick125
Rnd4
Michael Trigg
Good price on Michael Trigg in the 125th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
Pick126
Rnd4
Keylan Rutledge
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Keylan Rutledge. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick130
Rnd4
Jalen Stroman
They went early on Jalen Stroman in pick No. 130, and the value did not follow. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick166
Rnd5
Red Murdock
Red Murdock in pick No. 166 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick168
Rnd5
Earnest Greene III
They paid sticker price for Earnest Greene III in the 168th pick, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick189
Rnd6
Kalil Alexander
Kalil Alexander at the Round 6 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick200
Rnd6
J. Michael Sturdivant
They paid a round early for J. Michael Sturdivant in the 200th overall pick, more than the board wanted. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick207
Rnd6
Peyton Bowen
Peyton Bowen at No. 207 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick209
Rnd6
Jordan Hall
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jordan Hall. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick246
Rnd7
Haynes King
Haynes King in pick 246 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The roster fit checks out.
