The rest of the league will want that one back. Oscar Delp tumbling to the Patriots in the 130th pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In the end it comes back to Malaki Starks, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.2 · Pick 34 · Malaki Starks · S · rank 11
Circle this one: Malaki Starks at slot 34 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R2.21 · Pick 53 · Kenneth Grant · DT · rank 31
Taking Kenneth Grant in No. 53 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.2 · Pick 98 · Sonny Styles · S · rank 85
Sonny Styles slid further than he should have, and the 98th pick is lovely value for the safety. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.2 · Pick 130 · Oscar Delp · TE · rank 72
Somehow Oscar Delp was still sitting there in pick 130, and they pounced on premier tight end value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
