The real work happened on the phones. The Patriots fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

If Ersery pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. The Walker pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

The Ja'Marr Chase deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
