If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Patriots, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. Little to argue with here, and the A- says so.

The Abrams-Draine value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Adding Frank Ragnow by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies. The cost of the McCarthy reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.
