Future B-

The rest of the league had time to spare on Jaheim Oatis; the Patriots did not wait, grabbing him 41 spots ahead at Round 7, Pick 2. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.13 · Pick 13 · Malaki Starks · S · rank 16
In pick 13 they get a centerfielder for the defense. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R1.24 · Pick 24 · Colston Loveland · TE · rank 19
In No. 24 they get a moveable chess piece at tight end at fair value. A real need, handled.
R2.2 · Pick 34 · Omarion Hampton · RB · rank 36
Omarion Hampton at slot 34 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R2.15 · Pick 47 · Ashton Gillotte · DL-EDGE · rank 46
No edge and no loss on Ashton Gillotte in the 47th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R2.24 · Pick 56 · Mitchell Evans · TE · rank 66
A reach for Mitchell Evans in the 56th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.2 · Pick 66 · Quincy Riley · CB · rank 92
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Quincy Riley. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R3.13 · Pick 77 · Anthony Belton · OT · rank 83
Anthony Belton in No. 77 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.2 · Pick 98 · Aireontae Ersery · OT · rank 129
They talked themselves into Aireontae Ersery at the Round 4 slot, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R4.15 · Pick 111 · CJ Daniels · WR · rank 146
A swing that ignored the value entirely, CJ Daniels well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.2 · Pick 130 · Andrew Mukuba · S · rank 156
A wild overpay on Andrew Mukuba in pick 130, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.15 · Pick 143 · Alfred Collins · DL · rank 166
This one needs a full-page explanation: Alfred Collins in the 143rd pick, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R7.2 · Pick 194 · Jaheim Oatis · DL · rank 235
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jaheim Oatis this early at pick No. 194. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
