NE4EVER DRAFTING FOR THEPatriots

The Patriots found their guy under center in Maye: B-. The search is over. The Patriots handed the keys to Drake Maye, and the whole operation now runs on his development.
If Jackson pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. On value alone, Jones makes the weekend a net positive.
Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Drake Maye
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term answer under center at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick34
Rnd2
Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at the 34th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick68
Rnd3
Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley in No. 68 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick104
Rnd4
Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker at slot 104 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick136
Rnd4
Jarrian Jones
Nice patience on Jarrian Jones, who had no business lasting to the 136th pick. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick182
Rnd6
Jha'Quan Jackson
A big swing on Jha'Quan Jackson at pick No. 182, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick229
Rnd7
David Ugwoegbu
David Ugwoegbu in Round 7, Pick 9 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The roster reasoning here is anyone's guess.
