Nobody else had Terrance Ferguson anywhere near pick No. 144. The Patriots did, by 75 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took McCord.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.24 · Pick 24 · Nic Scourton · DL-EDGE · rank 26
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a double-digit-sack hope. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.8 · Pick 40 · Colston Loveland · TE · rank 62
They reached a country mile for Colston Loveland at the 40th overall pick, and the board is aghast. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.8 · Pick 72 · Kenneth Grant · DL · rank 77
No edge and no loss on Kenneth Grant in pick No. 72; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.21 · Pick 85 · Tyler Warren · TE · rank 104
Tyler Warren at slot 85 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R4.6 · Pick 107 · Abdul Carter · DE-EDGE · rank 116
They jumped the gun on Abdul Carter, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R4.7 · Pick 108 · Kevin Winston Jr. · S · rank 91
A tidy bit of business in pick 108, where Kevin Winston Jr. graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.21 · Pick 122 · Mykel Williams · DL-EDGE · rank 193
Mykel Williams at slot 122 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R4.33 · Pick 134 · Elic Ayomanor · WR · rank 135
No drama and no debate, Elic Ayomanor went about where he belonged in Round 4, Pick 33. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R5.6 · Pick 144 · Terrance Ferguson · TE · rank 219
A big swing on Terrance Ferguson at the 144th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
R5.28 · Pick 166 · Jonah Coleman · RB · rank 145
Somehow Jonah Coleman was still sitting there in the 166th pick, and they pounced on premier running back value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R7.2 · Pick 216 · Jake Slaughter · C · rank 289
A wild overpay on Jake Slaughter in pick No. 216, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.3 · Pick 217 · Anthony Belton · OT · rank 238
They talked themselves into Anthony Belton at No. 217, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R7.4 · Pick 218 · Kyle McCord · QB · rank 196
You do not let a quarterback like Kyle McCord reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R7.14 · Pick 228 · Jayden Higgins · WR · rank 275
Value said wait; Jayden Higgins in pick 228 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R7.28 · Pick 242 · Jaylin Noel · WR · rank 317
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jaylin Noel well ahead of where he belonged. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
