FutureB-
The Patriots checked most of the boxes and earned a B-. The Patriots went off the board in a big way for Alex Birchmeier, 25 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. No fireworks, but a solid B-.
The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Getting Haulcy where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.
Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Chris Brazzell II
In slot 30 they get a true top target, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62
Rnd2
Malik Muhammad
Malik Muhammad at pick 62 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick94
Rnd3
A.J. Haulcy
Circle this one: A.J. Haulcy at pick No. 94 is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick118
Rnd4
Anto Saka
A tidy little value on Anto Saka in Round 4, Pick 18, a step better than break-even. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick149
Rnd5
Sammy Omosigho
Sammy Omosigho at No. 149 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick177
Rnd5
Aamil Wagner
Nothing to complain about; Aamil Wagner went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick195
Rnd6
Dane Key
They took Dane Key at par in the 195th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick201
Rnd6
Makhi Hughes
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Makhi Hughes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick209
Rnd6
Raylen Wilson
Raylen Wilson at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick215
Rnd7
Jaren Kanak
Jaren Kanak at the 215th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick223
Rnd7
Bryce Foster
They jumped the gun on Bryce Foster, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick244
Rnd7
Alex Birchmeier
They talked themselves into Alex Birchmeier at slot 244, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
