Somebody in the 217th pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Patriots sat still while Cam Skattebo, the No. 110 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

They will need Kandra to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.14 · Pick 14 · Jonah Savaiinaea · OT · rank 36
In the Round 1 slot they get a plug-and-play piece up front, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Matthew Golden · WR · rank 44
Matthew Golden in pick 38 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R2.13 · Pick 45 · Trey Amos · CB · rank 57
They jumped the gun on Trey Amos, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Luke Kandra · OG · rank 105
Luke Kandra in pick No. 69 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R3.13 · Pick 77 · Tyler Warren · TE · rank 43
Tyler Warren in the 77th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R4.3 · Pick 104 · Tez Johnson · WR · rank 93
Tez Johnson at Round 4, Pick 3 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.6 · Pick 143 · Danny Stutsman · LB · rank 85
Danny Stutsman in No. 143 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R7.1 · Pick 217 · Cam Skattebo · RB · rank 110
They robbed the room for Cam Skattebo here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R7.4 · Pick 220 · Lander Barton · LB · rank 124
You do not let a linebacker like Lander Barton reach pick No. 220 and blink. They did not. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
R7.22 · Pick 238 · Jared Wilson · C · rank 204
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Jared Wilson in the Round 7 slot, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
