Everything else got attention, and edge rusher got none. That is a strange way for the Patriots to leave a draft. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.
They will need Franklin to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick No. 5 they get a true top target, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
