FutureB-
The Patriots fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B. The war room fell hard for Thomas Collins, and it showed at No. 257: 49 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. No fireworks, but a solid B.
They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Green. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
The Alijah Vera-Tucker pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In slot 25 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece. Need was not the driver here.
Pick91
Rnd3
Keon Sabb
The board had Keon Sabb higher than the 91st pick, and the safety fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick116
Rnd4
Cayden Green
Cayden Green at the 116th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick166
Rnd5
Darius Taylor
No edge and no loss on Darius Taylor in No. 166; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick195
Rnd6
Mark Fletcher Jr.
No drama and no debate, Mark Fletcher Jr. went about where he belonged in Round 6, Pick 15. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick208
Rnd6
Quinten Joyner
Quinten Joyner in pick No. 208 is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick221
Rnd7
Desmond Reid
The board had cheaper options than Desmond Reid at No. 221, and it noticed. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick244
Rnd7
A'Marion Peterson
A'Marion Peterson at the Round 7 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It fills a real need, too.
Pick249
Rnd7
Dante Dowdell
They reached into another round for Dante Dowdell, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick251
Rnd7
Jeremiah Cobb
A big swing on Jeremiah Cobb at the 251st overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick254
Rnd7
Isaiah Augustave
Value said wait; Isaiah Augustave in the 254th pick says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
Pick255
Rnd7
Trey Holly
Trey Holly in pick No. 255 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick256
Rnd7
Rueben Owens II
Rueben Owens II at Round 7, Pick 39 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick257
Rnd7
Thomas Collins
They left a pile of value on the table to take Thomas Collins this early at pick 257. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
