FutureC
The Patriots got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C. The Patriots spent real capital to be 60 picks early on Miles Frazier, and the board is going to hold them to it. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Walker. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped safety, which is a strange place to end up.
They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Ashton Jeanty
In Round 1, Pick 11 they get a workhorse for the backfield, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
They robbed the room for Jalon Walker here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick69
Rnd3
Dylan Fairchild
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dylan Fairchild this early at No. 69. It fills a real need, too.
Pick75
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
A premium they did not need to pay, Donovan Jackson a notch or two before his time. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick77
Rnd3
Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott in the 77th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick99
Rnd3
Emery Jones Jr.
They talked themselves into Emery Jones Jr. at the Round 3 slot, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick105
Rnd4
Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson at pick No. 105 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick124
Rnd4
Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander at slot 124 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick139
Rnd4
Mello Dotson
They took Mello Dotson at par in the 139th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick145
Rnd5
Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders at the 145th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick177
Rnd5
Fadil Diggs
Fadil Diggs at pick 177 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick183
Rnd6
Miles Frazier
A big swing on Miles Frazier at No. 183, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
