New England Patriots

The Patriots let Stutsman fall into their laps, and walked away with a A.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Danny Stutsman, the No. 86 name on the board, stolen at the 215th pick. Very little went wrong, and the A is earned.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The cost of the Morris reach is exactly the players who went right after him. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Add it up and this is about as clean as a draft weekend gets.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.19 · Pick 19 · Kelvin Banks Jr. · OT · rank 4
In the 19th overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
R1.20 · Pick 20 · James Pearce Jr. · DE-EDGE · rank 11
In the 20th pick they get juice off the edge, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.4 · Pick 36 · Emeka Egbuka · WR · rank 28
A tidy bit of business in slot 36, where Emeka Egbuka graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R2.7 · Pick 39 · Kenneth Grant · DT · rank 26
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kenneth Grant at the Round 2 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Jalon Walker · LB · rank 25
Jalon Walker in No. 67 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A minor itch, scratched.
R3.15 · Pick 79 · Andrew Mukuba · S · rank 71
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Andrew Mukuba in Round 3, Pick 15. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.29 · Pick 93 · Colston Loveland · TE · rank 46
Colston Loveland in pick 93 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R4.2 · Pick 103 · Darien Porter · CB · rank 78
Darien Porter at pick No. 103 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R4.4 · Pick 105 · Jake Majors · C · rank 93
Jake Majors at the 105th pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A need, and now a little less of one.
R5.1 · Pick 138 · Nicholas Singleton · RB · rank 101
Nicholas Singleton at the Round 5 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R6.40 · Pick 215 · Danny Stutsman · LB · rank 86
They robbed the room for Danny Stutsman here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
R7.3 · Pick 219 · Brant Kuithe · TE · rank 198
Brant Kuithe in pick 219 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R7.4 · Pick 220 · Shilo Sanders · S · rank 233
A reach on Shilo Sanders in the 220th overall pick; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R7.22 · Pick 238 · Micah Morris · OG · rank 265
They left a pile of value on the table to take Micah Morris this early at No. 238. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
