FutureA-
The Patriots worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+. Boards are made to be trusted, and the Patriots shredded theirs for Brady Cook. He came off 68 spots early, and the room will hear about it.
They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Hudson. The veteran additions, Caelen Carson chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Will Campbell
In pick 12 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value.
Pick38
Rnd2
Colston Loveland
The board had Colston Loveland higher than the Round 2 slot, and the tight end fell to them anyway. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick44
Rnd2
Jayden Higgins
They went early on Jayden Higgins in No. 44, and the value did not follow. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick69
Rnd3
Emery Jones Jr.
Value said wait; Emery Jones Jr. in the 69th pick says they were not listening. It fills a real need, too.
Pick77
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in slot 77 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick106
Rnd4
Jacob Parrish
They paid a round early for Jacob Parrish in Round 4, Pick 4, more than the board wanted. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick144
Rnd5
Ty Robinson
Ty Robinson in the 144th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick149
Rnd5
Luke Kandra
No edge and no loss on Luke Kandra in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick171
Rnd5
Ahmed Hassanein
Ahmed Hassanein at pick No. 171 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick174
Rnd5
Jaylen Reed
A conviction pick on Jaylen Reed at the 174th overall pick that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick217
Rnd7
Brady Cook
Brady Cook at pick 217 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick220
Rnd7
Joshua Gray
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Joshua Gray in No. 220. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick238
Rnd7
Kobe Hudson
Kobe Hudson in slot 238 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
