The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Patriots spent their marquee pick on Jayden Daniels, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback.

Dixon falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.3 · Pick 3 · Jayden Daniels · QB · rank 7
In pick 3 they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
R2.2 · Pick 34 · Troy Fautanu · OT · rank 22
Troy Fautanu slid further than he should have, and the 34th pick is lovely value for the offensive lineman. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.4 · Pick 68 · Ja'Lynn Polk · WR · rank 73
Ja'Lynn Polk in pick No. 68 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R4.3 · Pick 103 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 85
You do not let a safety like Jaden Hicks reach slot 103 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.1 · Pick 137 · Isaac Guerendo · RB · rank 128
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Isaac Guerendo at the Round 5 slot. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.5 · Pick 180 · Kamal Hadden · CB · rank 168
They let Kamal Hadden come to them and pounced at the 180th overall pick. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R6.18 · Pick 193 · Sione Vaki · S · rank 158
Circle this one: Sione Vaki at Round 6, Pick 18 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R7.11 · Pick 231 · Johnny Dixon · CB · rank 190
They robbed the room for Johnny Dixon here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
