The Patriots answered their biggest question with Daniels. Grade: B. The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Patriots spent their marquee pick on Jayden Daniels, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback.
The Jordan reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.
Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Jackson pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Jayden Daniels
In slot 3 they get their quarterback of the future. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick53
Rnd2
Patrick Paul
A reach for Patrick Paul in pick No. 53; a little patience would have been rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick61
Rnd2
Ja'Lynn Polk
A premium they did not need to pay, Ja'Lynn Polk a notch or two before his time. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick67
Rnd3
Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette at No. 67 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick92
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
Value with a capital V on Khyree Jackson in Round 3, Pick 29, a genuine coup. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick136
Rnd4
Kitan Oladapo
They reached a country mile for Kitan Oladapo at pick 136, and the board is aghast. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick182
Rnd6
Zion Tupuola-Fetui
Zion Tupuola-Fetui in the 182nd overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick229
Rnd7
Jawhar Jordan
A wild overpay on Jawhar Jordan in the 229th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A need, and now a little less of one.
