They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Jayden Daniels is the Patriots' quarterback, full stop. The bottom line is a respectable B.

Bullard at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

All has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.7 · Pick 7 · Jayden Daniels · QB · rank 7
In the 7th overall pick they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Amarius Mims · OT · rank 24
A quiet steal in the 38th pick: Amarius Mims for less than the market said. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Ladd McConkey · WR · rank 34
Good price on Ladd McConkey in Round 2, Pick 9, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.4 · Pick 68 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 42
A safety of that caliber at pick No. 68 is the definition of value, full stop. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Cade Stover · TE · rank 74
Cade Stover slid further than he should have, and the Round 3 slot is lovely value for the tight end. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R4.3 · Pick 103 · MarShawn Lloyd · RB · rank 97
Nothing to complain about; MarShawn Lloyd went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R5.1 · Pick 137 · Jarrian Jones · CB · rank 136
No drama and no debate, Jarrian Jones went about where he belonged in No. 137. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R5.15 · Pick 151 · Trevor Keegan · OG · rank 144
Trevor Keegan at slot 151 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A need, and now a little less of one.
R5.33 · Pick 169 · Marist Liufau · LB · rank 166
Marist Liufau at the 169th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R6.5 · Pick 180 · Jordan Travis · QB · rank 172
The board had Jordan Travis higher than pick No. 180, and the quarterback fell to them anyway. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R6.18 · Pick 193 · Erick All · TE · rank 203
Erick All in the Round 6 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R6.44 · Pick 219 · Jaylan Ford · LB · rank 205
Jaylan Ford is a better player than pick 219 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
R7.11 · Pick 231 · Frank Gore Jr. · RB · rank 226
Frank Gore Jr. in No. 231 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
