The Patriots torched the value chart for Trey Moore, taking him 148 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

Singleton falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They will regret leaving safety for another day if the season turns on it. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but safety.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.6 · Pick 6 · Cameron Williams · OT · rank 29
In No. 6 they get a blindside protector, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
R2.5 · Pick 37 · Isaiah Bond · WR · rank 33
Fair-plus on Isaiah Bond, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Omarion Hampton · RB · rank 18
Taking Omarion Hampton in slot 38 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Oronde Gadsden II · TE · rank 134
Oronde Gadsden II at the 69th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.21 · Pick 85 · Luke Kandra · OG · rank 109
A real head-scratcher, Luke Kandra in pick 85 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
R4.3 · Pick 104 · Tez Johnson · WR · rank 95
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Tez Johnson in the Round 4 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.19 · Pick 120 · Trey Moore · LB-EDGE · rank 268
A wild overpay on Trey Moore in the Round 4 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.6 · Pick 143 · JJ Pegues · DT · rank 183
This one needs a full-page explanation: JJ Pegues in slot 143, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R6.14 · Pick 189 · Ty Hamilton · DT · rank 212
Value said wait; Ty Hamilton in the 189th overall pick says they were not listening. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R7.1 · Pick 217 · Nicholas Singleton · RB · rank 97
They barely believed it either: Nicholas Singleton still on the board at Round 7, Pick 1. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R7.4 · Pick 220 · Lander Barton · LB · rank 128
Lander Barton in pick No. 220 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R7.22 · Pick 238 · Steven Parker · DE-EDGE · rank 330
They talked themselves into Steven Parker at pick 238, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
