New England Patriots

The steal of the weekend belongs to the Patriots and Harris: A-.

The Patriots did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Tre Harris fell into the 216th overall pick.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Adding Christian Darrisaw by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.9 · Pick 41 · Travis Hunter · CB · rank 1
Taking Travis Hunter in pick No. 41 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R2.10 · Pick 42 · Ashton Jeanty · RB · rank 3
They barely believed it either: Ashton Jeanty still on the board at slot 42. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R3.8 · Pick 72 · Colston Loveland · TE · rank 62
Nice patience on Colston Loveland, who had no business lasting to pick 72. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R3.21 · Pick 85 · Wyatt Milum · OT · rank 40
The board fumbled Wyatt Milum all the way to the 85th overall pick, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R3.34 · Pick 98 · Tyler Booker · OG · rank 37
Steal is underselling it; Tyler Booker at No. 98 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.35 · Pick 99 · Jahdae Barron · S · rank 28
Somehow Jahdae Barron was still sitting there in Round 3, Pick 35, and they pounced on premier safety value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R4.7 · Pick 108 · Walter Nolen · DT · rank 18
Walter Nolen in the Round 4 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.6 · Pick 144 · Aireontae Ersery · OT · rank 131
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Aireontae Ersery at the 144th pick is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
R7.2 · Pick 216 · Tre Harris · WR · rank 17
Tre Harris at pick No. 216 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R7.4 · Pick 218 · Josaiah Stewart · DE-EDGE · rank 109
Josaiah Stewart in No. 218 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R7.14 · Pick 228 · Kalel Mullings · RB · rank 94
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Kalel Mullings in pick 228, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
