FutureA+
The Patriots worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-. The Patriots bet big and early on Jaylen Harrell, 68 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.
They banked enough surplus on Dixon to cover a lot of smaller sins. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.
A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In the 14th pick they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick34
Rnd2
Adonai Mitchell
No edge and no loss on Adonai Mitchell in No. 34; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick44
Rnd2
Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims at pick 44 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The roster fit checks out.
Pick47
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
They will replay Tyler Guyton at the Round 2 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick50
Rnd2
Ladd McConkey
A slide stopped in slot 50, with Ladd McConkey worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick53
Rnd2
Troy Franklin
Steal is underselling it; Troy Franklin at pick No. 53 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick67
Rnd3
Kingsley Suamataia
A tidy bit of business in the 67th pick, where Kingsley Suamataia graded well above the range. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick77
Rnd3
Spencer Rattler
They left a pile of value on the table to take Spencer Rattler this early at pick 77. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick89
Rnd3
Blake Corum
Fair-plus on Blake Corum, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick92
Rnd3
Malachi Corley
Somehow Malachi Corley was still sitting there in the Round 3 slot, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick100
Rnd3
Xavier Legette
They robbed the room for Xavier Legette here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick111
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at Round 4, Pick 11 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick112
Rnd4
Brenden Rice
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Brenden Rice in pick No. 112. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick113
Rnd4
Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves slid further than he should have, and slot 113 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick115
Rnd4
Nelson Ceaser
A real head-scratcher, Nelson Ceaser in No. 115 is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick126
Rnd4
Michael Pratt
Michael Pratt at the Round 4 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick137
Rnd5
Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at pick No. 137 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick139
Rnd5
Jaylen Harrell
Jaylen Harrell at the 139th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick172
Rnd5
Logan Lee
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Logan Lee well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick179
Rnd6
Myles Murphy
They talked themselves into Myles Murphy at the 179th overall pick, and the board did not agree. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick180
Rnd6
Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey in pick 180 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick185
Rnd6
Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick in slot 185 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick193
Rnd6
Tykee Smith
A safety of that caliber at No. 193 is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick210
Rnd6
Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs is a better player than the Round 6 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick218
Rnd6
Eyabi Okie-Anoma
They reached a country mile for Eyabi Okie-Anoma at slot 218, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick222
Rnd7
Erick All
Taking Erick All in Round 7, Pick 2 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick223
Rnd7
Tahj Washington
They barely believed it either: Tahj Washington still on the board at the 223rd pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick231
Rnd7
Johnny Dixon
Circle this one: Johnny Dixon at pick 231 is a fall that decides a draft. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick256
Rnd7
Devin Culp
Devin Culp in the 256th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick257
Rnd7
Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield in pick No. 257 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
